Step 1: Circle all the herbivores
We are given a set of animals in the image. Let’s identify which ones are
herbivores (animals that eat only plants).
Here are the animals shown:
1.
Deer – eats grass, leaves, and plants →
Herbivore
2.
Bird (with a worm) – eating a worm →
Carnivore (or omnivore)
3.
Squirrel – eats nuts, seeds, fruits →
Herbivore (mostly)
4.
Seal – eats fish →
Carnivore
5.
Frog – eats insects →
Carnivore
6.
Shark – eats fish and other animals →
Carnivore
7.
Cow – eats grass →
Herbivore
✔ So, the
herbivores are:
-
Deer
-
Squirrel
-
Cow
👉
Circle these three animals.
