The manatee is classified as a herbivore because its diet primarily consists of aquatic plants, such as seagrasses, algae, and other vegetation. Their specialized teeth and digestive system are adapted to efficiently process large amounts of plant material. This herbivorous diet plays a crucial role in their ecosystem, as manatees help maintain healthy seagrass beds, which in turn support other marine life.
