Full Description

Folivores are animals that mainly feed on leaves. Some examples include koalas, sloths, and certain species of monkeys. These animals have specialized digestive systems that allow them to break down the tough cell walls of leaves and extract the nutrients within. While folivores may seem like picky eaters, they play an important role in maintaining the health and balance of ecosystems. Some folivorous animals are considered keystone species, meaning their presence is critical for the survival of other species within their habitat.
