I know the word “herbivore” means they don’t but they do. Majority of all herbivores are not obligate herbivores which means they still require proteins to function and they cannot get that solely from plants. They do usually supplement part of their diet with meat like fallen eggs, baby animals or insects. Goats will eat eggs, baby chicks, baby birds, insects and they drink milk too so that’s the proteins. Mountain goats might eat snakes too(?) depending on how little protein they have in their system. Majority of the earths creatures aren’t obligate at all. They do eat a mix of both fauna and flora. The only one I know off the top of my head that shouldn’t eat flora are cats but even they sometimes eat grass and flowers. Not everything is black and white when it comes to the animal kingdom!
