(1) For example, most large extant lizards are herbivorous.
(2) Homocysteine thiolactone metabolism differs in guinea pig, an herbivorous species, and in rat, an omnivorous species.
(3) The cystic stages which occur in the flesh of herbivores are probably non-pathogenic but the earlier stages in which schizonts develop in vascular endothelium may be severely pathogenic.
(4) These specializations may be interpreted as adaptation toward a more herbivorous-frugivorous diet.
(5) The results are discussed in relation to the digestive physiology and feeding habits of the various species, and there is an examination of the feasibility of using linear regressions of crude protein in the diet v. N in the faecal DM for evaluating the quality of the diets selected by free-ranging East African herbivores.
(6) Remarkably, the ratio for adult rabbits is higher than in other monogastric herbivores and is instead similar to values for carnivores.
(7) 15 species were found on dung pellets of wild living herbivorous mammals.
(8) Herbivores often have a choice between poorer food that can be eaten fast and richer food that can only be eaten more slowly.
(9) Most of the parasites in the herbivorous species were trichurids and strongylids, whereas most of the parasites in the carnivorous species were ascarids.
(10) Potassium secretion by the nasal salt glands of the herbivorous desert lizard Sauromalus obesus was determined in vivo by a new technique.
(11) Two kinds of herbivorous rabbit-fish – the dusty spine-foot and its cousin the marbled spine-foot – have destroyed vast swaths of underwater seaweed forests in the eastern Mediterranean, after migrating through the Suez in recent decades.
(12) Of the lactose-free milk substitutes for children now available, it is recommended that Pregestimil, Glucose Nutramigen and particularly CFI be used for very young orphan marsupial herbivores (especially kangaroos), as these are both lactose- and sucrose-free.
(13) PCB and sigma DDT concentrations were greater in the predatory bottom animals than in the herbivores or detritus feeders, and the amounts of chlorinated hydrocarbons were greater in profundal animals than in littoral animals.
(14) Diversity of dietary intake with respect to plant food and animal protein is only one-third of the maximum divergence between strict herbivores and carnivores.
(15) All significant properties of the herbivore trophic level, including biomass, consumption and productivity, are significantly correlated with primary productivity across a broad range of terrestrial ecosystems.
(16) Optimal diet choices are predicted for herbivores with particular gut structures.
(17) The study of the aorta and coronary arteries from 25 chamois shot in their mountain natural habitat allowed the observation that this animal is more exposed to liposclerotic lesions than other wild herbivorous mammals which live in the plain or at low altitudes.
(18) Grazing herbivores (usually sheep or cattle) are the definitive hosts.
(19) Current estimates are that VFA contribute approximately 70% to the caloric requirements of ruminants, such as sheep and cattle, approximately 10% for humans, and approximately 20-30% for several other omnivorous or herbivorous animals.
(20) Differing strategies of adaptation to plant defenses may partly account for the great diversity of insect herbivores.
