3. Animals have to eat their food in order to
get energy to live. Different animals eat
different types of food. An animal’s mouth,
teeth, and even body structure all help it to eat
a certain type of food. You can often figure
out what types of food an animal eats by
looking at its body and mouth.

4. Herbivores are animals that eat only
plants and plant material. Herbivores are
usually smaller than carnivores.
Herbivores may eat leaves, berries,
roots, or even tree bark. They usually
need to eat often during the day in order
to have enough energy.

5. Herbivores have teeth
that are rather flat. They
need to chew a lot in
order to break down plant
materials into very small
pieces. Having flat teeth
helps herbivores to chew
easier.

7. Carnivores are animals that eat only meat.
These animals are usually fairly large and they
have to eat other animals in order to obtain
enough energy. Some carnivores eat insects and
bugs; some eat small animals, such as rats or
fish; while other carnivores eat bigger animals,
such as wolves or even buffalo.

8. Carnivores have only sharp
teeth in their mouths. They
need sharp teeth in order to
tear apart meat. They
usually don’t chew their food,
they just swallow it in the
size of the pieces that they
tear off.

10. Omnivores are animals that can eat both
plant materials and meat. They can get their
food more easily than other animals because
they can eat more types of food than either
herbivores or carnivores.

Omnivores have sharp teeth
like carnivores, but they also have
flat teeth like herbivores.
Usually, the carnivorous teeth are
in the front of the mouth, which
allows omnivores to bite into
pieces of meat. The flatter
teeth are usually behind the
sharp teeth, which allows them to
chew all their food.
