    Except hippos are known to eat meat…so they ARE omnivores.

      Nearly any plant eater is. The categorization is outdated and you shouldn’t be mad.

      Yeah, hippos are pretty interesting because they’re definitely not obligate omnivores but do eat some meat.

      iirc a lot of animals we consider herbivorous are really opportunistic omnivores

        Deer will MONCH on some bird nests full of eggs and babies. Also on adult birds if they are injured or caught on something.

        Fucking deer. Get out of my roses.

      I don’t know that’s the reason they kill humans.

      I think they just don’t like humans.
