Full Description

Insectivores are animals that primarily feed on insects and other invertebrates. Some examples include shrews, moles, hedgehogs, and certain species of bats. These animals have adapted to a diet of insects, which provides them with high protein and energy content. Insectivores play an important role in controlling insect populations, and their presence in ecosystems can indicate a healthy balance of prey and predator populations. It's important to note that many animals may supplement their diets with insects, even if they are not classified as insectivores.
