Answer:
Herbivores (plant-eaters) and carnivores (meat-eaters) have very different teeth. Herbivores typically have chisel-like incisors and large, flat premolars and molars for chewing plants, while their canines are small, if they have them at all.

Answer:
Herbivores have broad, flat molars (back teeth) with rough surfaces, which are used for grinding up tough plant tissues.
Many herbivores (like squirrels) have chisel-like front teeth used for gnawing through wood or hard seeds. These teeth grow continually to avoid being worn down with use.
