These animals feed only on plants, including leaves, fruits, seeds, and roots. In the study of animal eating habits, they are grouped alongside carnivores (meat-eaters) and omnivores (those that eat both plants and animals).<\/p>\n<p>From the gentle cow grazing in fields to the deer wandering in forests, herbivorous <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/infinitylearn.com\/surge\/topics\/animals-name\/\">animals&#8217; names<\/a><\/strong> are commonly heard in our daily lives.

Their diet includes grass, leaves, fruits, vegetables, flowers, seeds, roots, and sometimes tree bark. They have specially adapted teeth and digestive systems to break down tough plant materials. Unlike carnivores, they do not eat meat. Common herbivores like cows, deer, elephants, and rabbits survive by grazing or browsing for plants in their natural habitat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\" data-start=\"229\" data-end=\"671\"><strong>Also Check: <a href=\"https:\/\/infinitylearn.com\/surge\/topics\/domestic-animals-name\/\">Domestic Animals Name<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"#herbivores-animals-name-list\" dir=\"ltr\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Top_25_Herbivores_Animals_Names_List\"><\/span>Top 25+ Herbivores Animals Names List<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"table-responsive\">\n<table class=\"table table-bordered table-striped\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"5\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #89cff0; color: black;\">\n<th>S.No.<\/th>\n<th>Herbivorous Animal Name<\/th>\n<th>Common Habitat<\/th>\n<th>Type<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>Cow<\/td>\n<td>Farms, Grasslands<\/td>\n<td>Domestic<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<td>Goat<\/td>\n<td>Farms, Hills<\/td>\n<td>Domestic<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>Sheep<\/td>\n<td>Fields, Mountains<\/td>\n<td>Domestic<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>Horse<\/td>\n<td>Farms, Plains<\/td>\n<td>Domestic\/Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>Elephant<\/td>\n<td>Forests, Grasslands<\/td>\n<td>Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<td>Giraffe<\/td>\n<td>Savannas, Woodlands<\/td>\n<td>Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>7<\/td>\n<td>Deer<\/td>\n<td>Forests, Meadows<\/td>\n<td>Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>8<\/td>\n<td>Zebra<\/td>\n<td>Savannah, Grasslands<\/td>\n<td>Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9<\/td>\n<td>Donkey<\/td>\n<td>Farms, Rural Areas<\/td>\n<td>Domestic<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10<\/td>\n<td>Camel<\/td>\n<td>Deserts<\/td>\n<td>Domestic\/Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>11<\/td>\n<td>Rabbit<\/td>\n<td>Meadows, Gardens<\/td>\n<td>Domestic\/Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>12<\/td>\n<td>Koala<\/td>\n<td>Eucalyptus Forests<\/td>\n<td>Wild (Australia)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>13<\/td>\n<td>Panda<\/td>\n<td>Bamboo Forests<\/td>\n<td>Wild (Asia)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>14<\/td>\n<td>Rhinoceros<\/td>\n<td>Grasslands, Swamps<\/td>\n<td>Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>15<\/td>\n<td>Buffalo<\/td>\n<td>Grasslands, Marshy Areas<\/td>\n<td>Domestic\/Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>16<\/td>\n<td>Yak<\/td>\n<td>Mountains (Himalayas)<\/td>\n<td>Domestic\/Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>17<\/td>\n<td>Guinea Pig<\/td>\n<td>Grasslands, Homes<\/td>\n<td>Domestic<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>18<\/td>\n<td>Parrot<\/td>\n<td>Tropical Forests<\/td>\n<td>Domestic\/Wild (Bird)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>19<\/td>\n<td>Tortoise<\/td>\n<td>Deserts, Forests<\/td>\n<td>Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>20<\/td>\n<td>Manatee<\/td>\n<td>Rivers, Coastal Waters<\/td>\n<td>Aquatic<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>21<\/td>\n<td>Sloth<\/td>\n<td>Rainforests<\/td>\n<td>Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>22<\/td>\n<td>Antelope<\/td>\n<td>Savannah, Plains<\/td>\n<td>Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>23<\/td>\n<td>Kangaroo<\/td>\n<td>Grasslands (Australia)<\/td>\n<td>Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>24<\/td>\n<td>Moose<\/td>\n<td>Forests, Swamps (North)<\/td>\n<td>Wild<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Also Check: <a href=\"https:\/\/infinitylearn.com\/surge\/topics\/wild-animals-name\/\">Wild Animals Name<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Plant_Eating_Animals_Name_with_Descriptions_Herbivorous_Animals_List\"><\/span>10 Plant Eating Animals Name with Descriptions | Herbivorous Animals List<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"table-responsive\">\n<table class=\"table table-bordered table-striped\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"5\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #89cff0; color: black;\">\n<th>S.No.<\/th>\n<th>Animal Name<\/th>\n<th>Description<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>Cow<\/td>\n<td>A domestic herbivore that grazes on grass, hay, and grains.
