The 125 pages that link to Herbivory, each with the reason it gives.

• PredationCompared with: It is another form of consumption, usually distinguished from killing and eating whole prey.

• Food webRelated: Herbivores connect primary producers to higher consumers.

• OmnivoryCompared with: It contrasts with omnivory by relying chiefly on plant matter.

• GrazingNarrower topic: Grazing is one form of herbivory, distinguished by feeding on low-growing vegetation.

• GrasslandRelated: Grazers remove grasses and can alter competition between grasses and woody plants.

• CarnivoryCompared with: Herbivores obtain food from producers rather than from other animals.

• SavannaRelated: Grazers and browsers alter plant competition and limit some woody plants.

• OrnithischiaRelated: Plant eating shaped the teeth, jaws, and feeding adaptations of ornithischians.

• FrugivoreNarrower topic: Frugivory is a specialized form of feeding on plant-derived food.

• AllelopathyCompared with: Plant chemicals may also affect herbivores, but that interaction is not plant-to-plant allelopathy.

• Plant defense against herbivoryNarrower topic: Plant defense is an evolutionary response to the costs of herbivory.

• Bite forceRelated: Biting and chewing plant material can demand forceful jaws and specialized teeth.

• Giant pandaRelated: Pandas are carnivorans that have become highly specialized plant eaters.

• Agricultural pestRelated: Insect and vertebrate pests reduce crops by eating leaves, roots, seeds, or fruit.

• Chemical defenseRelated: Plant chemical defenses influence which herbivores can feed and how much damage they cause.

• Host plantNarrower topic: Insect feeding on a host plant is a form of herbivory.

• TriceratopsNarrower topic: Triceratops' teeth and beak were adapted for a plant-based diet.

• African savannaRelated: Grazers remove grasses and browsers feed on woody plants, changing competition between them.

• CeratopsiaRelated: Ceratopsian jaws and teeth were adapted for processing plant food.

• SauropodaRelated: Sauropods’ plant-eating shaped their teeth, digestive demands, and interactions with vegetation.

• PolyphenolRelated: Tannins and other polyphenols can affect how nutritious or palatable plant tissues are to herbivores.

• Seed predationNarrower topic: Seed predation targets reproductive propagules, whereas herbivory usually targets vegetative tissues.

• DiplodocusRelated: Diplodocus's peg-like teeth indicate a specialized way of stripping vegetation.

• GranivoryNarrower topic: Granivory is a specialized form of herbivory focused on seeds rather than leaves, stems, or roots.

• AnkylosauriaRelated: Ankylosaurs were herbivores, and their anatomy reflects plant-based diets.

• Food chainRelated: Herbivory links primary producers to animal consumers.

• HadrosauridaeRelated: Plant eating shaped the family’s teeth, jaws, and body size.

• White-tailed deerNarrower topic: Browsing by white-tailed deer changes which plants survive and grow.

• Green sea turtleRelated: Adult green turtles are unusual among sea turtles for grazing mainly on seagrasses and algae.

• MegaherbivoreNarrower topic: Megaherbivores exert their ecological influence chiefly through large-scale plant consumption.

• RhinocerotidaeRelated: Rhinoceroses are herbivores, with diets shaped by their differing mouth and tooth forms.

• StegosaurusRelated: Plant-eating shaped Stegosaurus’s teeth, jaws, and likely feeding behavior.

• Mammoth SteppeRelated: Large grazers maintained open vegetation by repeatedly eating grasses and shrubs.

• Mountain gorillaNarrower topic: Mountain gorillas obtain most of their food from leaves, stems, shoots, and other vegetation.

• Plant-animal interactionBroader topic: Feeding links animals to plants through damage, food acquisition, and plant defenses.

• Tropical savannaRelated: Large grazers reduce grass fuel, while browsers can limit young trees.

• Pharyngeal jawRelated: Broad, grinding pharyngeal teeth help some fishes process plant material.

• ApatosaurusRelated: Apatosaurus sustained its large body by eating plant matter.

• European bisonNarrower topic: Wisent diets span grasses, herbs, leaves, and woody vegetation.

• RodentiaRelated: Many rodents rely on plant foods, though diets vary widely across the order.

• SauropodomorphaRelated: Plant eating became characteristic across much of sauropodomorph evolution, despite varied tooth and jaw designs.

• SireniaNarrower topic: Plant-based feeding shapes sirenian teeth, guts, and habitat use.

• GranivoreNarrower topic: Granivory is a specialized form of herbivory focused on seeds.

• IguanodonRelated: Plant eating shaped Iguanodon's teeth, jaws, and likely feeding behavior.

• MolluscivoryCompared with: It relies on primary producers rather than mollusks as food.

• NectarivoreRelated: Nectarivory is a specialized form of feeding on plant-produced food.

• PhytophagyNarrower topic: Phytophagy is commonly treated as the animal-on-plant form of herbivory.

• Plant ecologyRelated: Herbivores alter plant growth, survival, and competitive relationships.

• Plant-herbivore interactionsNarrower topic: This broader feeding mode includes interactions with algae as well as land plants.

• Tibetan antelopeNarrower topic: Grazing is the antelope’s basic means of obtaining food from steppe vegetation.
