Why do herbivores have longer, small intestine than carnivores ?

$\huge\mathcal{\fcolorbox{black}{black}{\blue{ANSWER࿐}}}$

Digestion of cellulose takes a longer time. Hence, herbivores eating grass need a longer small intestine to allow complete digestion of cellulose. Carnivorous animals cannot digest cellulose due to the absence of enzyme CELLULASE, hence they have a shorter intestine.
