Carnivores (Leopard) Meat eating animals are called carnivores. They have sharp teeth for tearing and ripping their prey. They have dagger like canines which can grow up to 6 inches long. They have smaller front teeth called incisors,which come together to bite or scrape meat from bones.

Omnivores (humans) Omnivores teeth are multi use. This means they are able to eat meat, veg and plants. Sometimes at the same time. Their teeth are all different for different uses.

Herbivore (horse) Herbivores eat plants, leaves and grass. They have square cheeks. They have molars and pre molars for grinding plants. Horses live on a diet of grass and cereals.
