Dose animals also needed a balanced diet in there food
Answers
Answer:
yes.
Explanation:
Interesting question. (By the way, humans are animals also). By balanced you’re talking about a certain ratio of carbs, protein and fat. It’s actually not clear that we need a “balanced’ diet or exactly what a balanced diet is. Humans can eat protein and fat, and eliminate carbs because we have a mechanism, gluconeogenisis, that allows us to convert protein into glucose. So what exactly is a balanced diet? There is no exact balance for each of us.
Wild animals eat a raw diet, which protects the nutrients. Carnivores will eat all the parts of the animal, we tend to eat just muscle meat, although other parts, like the organs, are much more nutrient dense. We eat a cooked diet, which probably has some detrimental effects also. I remember reading a number of years ago about when zoos were beginning and they were feeding the animals what they thought was a good balanced cooked diet. Well, the animals were dying quickly and it was realized they had to be fed their natural raw diet. When they instituted that, the animals thrived.

Key element for a balanced diet
The lack does not hamper the growth of animals but protein is important and essential for production and maintenance
