If the hippopotamus is classified according to its feeding habits, it can be classified as an omnivore.Some people think that hippos are herbivores because they mainly eat grass.In fact, hippos can also eat meat, not just grass.Moreover, the hippopotamus is more aggressive and large, so it can catch more kinds of animals, and sometimes deer, Buffalo, antelope, zebra and other very large animals.
Because hippos are omnivores, they can eat more food, both animals and plants.Compared with the two groups, hippos eat grass more often and eat less meat.Hippos do not often eat animals in their environment where grasses are abundant.
Hippos are omnivores, their main food is grass, but they can also eat meat.Sometimes hippos will attack other animals, especially when other animals invade the territory of hippos, hippos will become very irritable, at this time they will attack the invading animals to death, and then may eat them.When hippos are more irritable, they may also kill and eat their own kind directly.Sometimes hippos eat meat more like "scavenger" behavior, because hippos will eat dead animals when they encounter them, so as to avoid polluting the surrounding environment with dead animals.
Hippos can eat meat because their bodies are built to digest it.The digestive organs of the hippopotamus are well developed.In fact, compared with plants and animals, plants are more difficult to digest, and hippos that can digest plants can naturally digest animals.In fact, it is good for hippos to eat meat occasionally.
