What is the Difference between carnivore and herbivore?
Carnivores tend to eat meat, so animals that hunt other animals would be carnivores, as well as scavengers. They sometimes eat small amounts of plants, for their nutrition. Herbivores on the other hand, eat plants. They are usually the ones getting hunted. If the animal likes to eat both (in generally equal moderation) like humans, they are called "omnivores". One way to be able to tell the difference at a glance is this rhyme: Eyes in front, likes to hunt. Eyes on the side, likes to hide. This is generally true for all animals, If they have eyes on the front of their heads, they eat meat (lions, wolves, etc.). But if their eyes are on the side of their heads, they use them to watch for predators (sheep, squirrels, etc.).
