MammalBase - Standard Trait value: Herbivore-Grazer

Standard Trait value: Herbivore-Grazer


Standard Trait value: Herbivore-Grazer
Standard Trait: Taxon: Dietary category: Eisenberg 1981 (n/a)
Standard Trait value: Herbivore-Grazer
Display order: 140
Description: Category 14 includes species that have specialized for feeding grasses. Unlike the preceding category, leafy material is less frequently included in the diet. All gradations between categories 13 and 14 may be found (see Eisenberg 1978; Hofmann and Stewart 1972). I would typify a member of category 14 as a grazer and a member of category 13 as a browser.
