Digestion in grass eating Animals :
The grass eating animals such as Cow, Buffaloes, Horse etc. swallow half chewed grass quickly and store it in a part of their stomach called rumen.
Here, the food gets partially digested, which is called Cud. When the animals are not eating, the Cud return to the mouth in small lumps and is chewed again. This process is called rumination.
Those animals are called ruminants. Ruminants have four chamber in their stomach, i.e., Rumen, Reticulum, Omasum and Abomasum.
