Grass-eating animals such as cows quickly swallow grass and store it in a separate portion of their stomach called the rumen. Food gets partially digested in the rumen. ... Animals then keep chewing on these lumps. Grass is rich incellulose, which cannot be digested by humans and many other animals.
