Carnivores
bear
Carnivores are hunters or predators. They eat other animals to survive. Mammals that are carnivores have sharp teeth adapted for ripping meat from a carcass. Herbivores have teeth adapted to chewing plants.  Their big molars are designed to help them grind up leaves, seeds and twigs. Carnivores like the wolf have large, powerful jaws that help bring down large animals like deer.  The bobcat and cougar have powerful paws with sharp claws that help them catch prey.
