flat teeth to chew grass.

from flowers.
CHIMPANZEES and MONKEYS use their hands in
getting food.
OSTRICH and CHICKEN use their beaks and bills in
getting food.
GRASSHOPPERS and SPIDERS made use of their
legs to get food.
 Different animals eat different types
of food.
Some animals eat different types of food.
Some animals have teeth and some others do not.
Some animals have sharp teeth or incisors for
gnawing like the rats, hamster, and rabbits.
• These incisors grow continuously.
They are worn down through
constant gnawing. When gnawing is
prevented, the incisors grow so long
that the animals cannot eat and die
of hungers.
The cats and dogs have smaller incisors but
bigger canine teeth. These canine teeth are also
called fangs.
They use their fangs for tearing meat and their
molars for chopping the meat into smaller
portions so they would be small enough to
swallow .
The horse, sheep, and cows have more closely
spaced and even—sized teeth. These work well in
clipping off grasses and plant leaves.
