Animals require the right amount and types of foods to stay healthy. Different animal species have specific diets - herbivores eat plants, carnivores consume meat, and omnivores include both in their diet. Providing the correct food ensures proper growth, strength, and overall health. Giving animals the wrong food can lead to various health issues.
