Herb यानी पौधे और -vore यानी 'खाने वाला', वही ending जो carnivore में है। Herbivore सिर्फ़ पौधे खाता है, जैसे गाय या हिरण। Carnivore मांस खाता है, omnivore दोनों, insectivore कीड़े।

HERB means plants and -VORE means 'one who eats', the same ending you know from carnivore. A HERBIVORE eats only plants, like a cow or a deer. Carnivore eats flesh, omnivore eats both, insectivore eats insects.
