Herbivores are animals that eat only plants, and are the primary consumers in most food webs, as they feed on the producers (plants) and provide energy to other species in the ecosystem. Herbivores have adapted to eating a wide variety of plant material, including leaves, fruits, flowers, stems, and roots. They often have specialized digestive systems that allow them to break down tough plant matter and extract nutrition from it. Herbivores play an important role in maintaining healthy ecosystems by controlling vegetation growth and dispersing seeds throughout their habitats. Without herbivores many plants would become overgrown or die off completely due to lack of pollination or seed dispersal.
