Define herbivore and name a mammal example.

An animal that eats meat; Example: wolves.

An animal that eats both plants and animals; Example: bears.

An animal that eats plants; Example: deer.

Herbivore means an animal that eats plants. In mammals, this includes animals that primarily browse or graze on vegetation such as leaves, grasses, and fruits. A classic mammal example is the deer, which relies on plant matter for its nutrition. This fits cleanly because deer are animals that eat plants rather than meat. In contrast, wolves are carnivores (they eat meat), and bears are omnivores (they eat both plants and animals), while earthworms are detritivores and not mammals.

An animal that feeds on detritus; Example: earthworms.
