Carnivores Lion eating flesh
Crow
Carnivores are the group of animals that eat flesh of other
animals. They have long canines which help them to tear
flesh easily. They find out their prey and then hunt them to
fill their stomach. The examples of carnivores are lion,
tiger, leopard and many more.
Omnivores
Omnivores are similar to both carnivores and herbivores
because they eat both plants and animals. It is very easy for
omnivores to find food because they eat pretty much
anything. For example, crow and bear.
Scavengers
Some animals like vulture, and hyena eat the flesh of dead
animals. Such animals are known as scavengers.
Parasites Vulture
Lice
Parasites are living organisms that live and feed on an
organism's or host's body. For example, mosquito, bug, lice,
tapeworm, etc. They live on the body of other animals and
suck their blood. Some parasites may live inside the body of
the host animal while some live outside their bodies.
