As per eating habit, squirrels are? (CSS 2011 General Science & Ability Paper)

Frugivorous
Herbivorous
Carnivorous
Omnivorous

Squirrels are omnivores, which means they like to eat plants and meat. Squirrels mainly eat fungi, seeds, nuts and fruits, but they will also munch on eggs, small insects, caterpillars, small animals and even young snakes.

  • Herbivores are animals whose primary food source is plant-based. Examples of herbivores, include vertebrates like deer, koalas, and some bird species, as well as invertebrates such as crickets and caterpillars. These animals have evolved digestive systems capable of handling large amounts of plant material. Herbivores can be further classified into frugivores (fruit-eaters), granivores (seed eaters), nectivores (nectar feeders), and folivores (leaf eaters)
  • Carnivores are animals that eat other animals. The word carnivore is derived from Latin and literally means “meat eater.” Wild cats such as lions, and tigers are examples of vertebrate carnivores, as are snakes and sharks, while invertebrate carnivores include sea stars, spiders, and ladybugs.
  • Omnivores are animals that eat both plant– and animal-derived food. In Latin, omnivore means to eat everything. Humans, bears, and chickens are example of vertebrate omnivores; invertebrate omnivores include cockroaches and crayfish.
