Also, Human beings and herbivorous animals have little mouths in relation to their heads, carnivores have big mouths, better for killing prey. Other similarities between human beings and herbivores. Both get vitamin C from their diets, carnivores dont, they make it internally. Herbivores and humans sip water, not lap it up with their tongues like carnivores. I think we obviously are not carnivores, but we are equally obviously not only vegetarians. We have longer intestines than carnivores, but not as long as herbivores. As u mentioned we dont possess multiple stomachs like herbivores, nor do we chew cud. Our physiology definitely indicates a mixed feeder.. omnivores.
