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

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

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

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

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

• 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.

• 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.

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

• 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.

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

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

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

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

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

• PsittacosaurusRelated: Its beak and jaws were adapted for cropping and processing plant food.

• SwanRelated: Aquatic vegetation forms much of the diet of many swan species.

• DicynodontiaRelated: Their jaws and beaks were adapted to process plant food.

• BrontotheriidaeRelated: Brontotheres were herbivores, and their teeth preserve evidence about how they processed vegetation.

• PlateosaurusRelated: Plateosaurus had teeth and jaws suited to a plant-based diet.

• PungencyRelated: Pungent chemicals can deter some herbivores, though their effects vary by species.

• UintatheriumRelated: Uintatherium’s teeth and body are associated with a plant-eating lifestyle.

• Aldabra giant tortoiseRelated: Leaves, grasses, and other vegetation make up much of its diet.

• AnkylosaurusRelated: Ankylosaurus's teeth and jaws were adapted for a plant-based diet.

• CorythosaurusRelated: Corythosaurus's teeth and jaws were adapted for processing vegetation.

• EdaphosaurusRelated: Edaphosaurus was among the earliest large terrestrial vertebrates known to be herbivorous.

• HeterodontosaurusRelated: Its beak and grinding teeth indicate adaptation to plant consumption.

• MilkfishRelated: Juvenile and adult milkfish commonly graze on algae and other plant material.

• ParaceratheriumRelated: Its teeth and jaws were adapted to a plant-based diet rather than predation.

• AcanthuridaeRelated: Many acanthurids graze algae, affecting both their nutrition and reef communities.

• Cave bearRelated: Dental evidence indicates cave bears relied heavily on plant foods.

• CharacidaeRelated: Some characids feed heavily on seeds, fruits, or other plant material.

• DamselfishRelated: Algae-eating damselfish crop reef growth and influence which algae persist.

• EdmontosaurusRelated: Edmontosaurus’s teeth and jaws were adapted for processing vegetation.

• EuoplocephalusRelated: Euoplocephalus was a herbivore, and its skull informs studies of ankylosaur feeding.

• Green iguanaRelated: Adult green iguanas feed predominantly on leaves, flowers, and fruit.

• MoschopsRelated: Moschops is interpreted as a plant-eater from its anatomy and fossil context.
