Herbivores animals eat grass, vegetables , fruits and many more thing Except Meats or any kind of Flesh. So , they need the Molar type of teeth to chew or crush the food well . So, they lack canines as they don't need to have Flesh eating things.

yep..its good..ty
food eaten by herbivorous animals are generally soft enough and they can be crushed to powder/chewed to pulp.. Canines are needed for piercing/cutting and breaking (skin and) meat (from dead animal).
