Many people would say a squirrel is a herbivore, but they are not. If your really think and look at what a squirrel eats you will know they are omnivore's They are omnivores because if you look at what they eat, their diet includes, different berry's different nuts, and bird eggs. Bird eggs are not a berry, nut, of leaf. It is a unhatched bird. And birds are meat. So, no, squirrels are not herbivores.
