  Of course – herbivores don’t eat meat and there are countless species of those!

  Some people only feed their dogs a vegetarian diet, omnivores (like humans and rats) can also survive on vegetarian diet but true carnivores like cats and ferrets need meat in their diet to get the right nutrients to survive due to the way their digestive tract processes food
