Herbivore, Carnivore, Omnivore Diet Classification
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Animals classify by diet as herbivores, eating mainly plants; carnivores, eating other animals; or omnivores, eating both, with obligate carnivores relying on flesh alone.
Show
A lion is an obligate carnivore; a dog eating meat and plants is a facultative carnivore, bordering on omnivore.
Watch for
No sharp line separates facultative carnivores from omnivores — the categories describe a spectrum, not a boundary.
Builds on
- Nothing — this is a starting point.
