Sheep6

• So a great example of a natural living anerobic digester is a ruminant - a cow, a sheep or a goat. (loe.org)
• Looking at the ingredients it seems to use less desirable sheep parts (ruminants, stomach, ground meat-bits). (metafilter.com)
• Sarah - Cows are a herbivore called ruminants, so like sheep as well. (thenakedscientists.com)
• These animals get nutrients through fermenting food in four-chambered stomachs found in cows, sheep, and goats. (phys.org)
• Cows, sheep, deer and other ruminants are basically walking fermenting chambers for grass. (country-wide.co.nz)
• The usual reservoirs are cattle and other ruminants (mammals that rechew their cud [food that returns from the stomach], including goats and sheep). (cdc.gov)

Digestion7

• Known as the "true stomach" of ruminants, it is where primary digestion takes place. (everything2.com)
• The stomach then creates fluids and enzymes that aid in the digestion of food. (killerinsideme.com)
• The remains are passed to the fourth stomach where the digestion is completed. (aishdas.org)
• Like their giraffe cousins, okapis are ruminants-animals with four chambered stomachs that allow the digestion of very tough plant matter. (rainforest-alliance.org)
• These purified grain products may form gummy masses in the stomachs of ruminants and interfere with digestion. (environmentalchemistry.com)
• Deer are ruminants - mammals that acquire nutrients from plant-based food by fermenting it in a specialized stomach before digestion. (utah.gov)
• This type of methane is primarily created during the digestion process of ruminant animals such as cattle. (umass.edu)

Cows6

• Cows are ruminants. (sciencelearn.org.nz)
• Whereas ruminants such as cows, giraffes, etc., have four compartments inside their stomach which enable them to digest cellulose found in plants. (killerinsideme.com)
• Cows technically only have one stomach, but it has four distinct compartments made up of Rumen, Reticulum, Omasum and Abomasum. (killerinsideme.com)

• Its sources are many: Gas escaping from petroleum wells, burps from cows' ruminant stomachs, and bacterial decomposition in sewage farms and landfills. (channelnewsasia.com)
• All cows are ruminants and have four-chamber stomachs. (tanglewoodfarmminiatures.com)

Goats2

• Like other ruminants, goats have multiple stomachs. (discovermagazine.com)
• Like cow's milk, goat's milk is low in essential fatty acids, because goats also have EFA-destroying bacteria in their ruminant stomachs. (askdrsears.com)

Cattle8

• When a ruminant is feeding, it does so in a series of quick bites, giving the food no more than a cursory chew between its molar teeth, mixing it with large quantities of saliva (several hundred litres per day in domestic cattle) and then swallowing it into the first of the chambers, the rumen. (open.edu)
• The abomasum is the fourth stomach of cattle ( Bos taurus ) or other ruminant s. (everything2.com)
• In the case of cattle and the cattle egret (a small white heron ), large ruminants are the host and the cattle egret is the symbiont, feeding on the ticks and other ectoparasites of the former, as well as insects that the cattle disturb as they feed. (newworldencyclopedia.org)
• Cattle are ruminant animals, which means they have a unique digestive system with four compartments to their stomach. (beefmagazine.com)
• Non-ruminant farm animals such as pigs, chickens, turkey, and ducks do not enterically produce methane at the rate that cattle do. (umass.edu)
• Smaller ruminant animals also do not enterically emit methane at the rate that cattle do. (umass.edu)
• Non ruminant animals and ruminants that are smaller than cattle do not emit enteric methane as significantly as cattle do. (umass.edu)
• Unlike ruminants such as cattle that have several stomachs and symbiotic microbes that break down the plant fiber component cellulose, hogs and chickens cannot survive on diets that contain only grass and other forages. (ucsusa.org)

Multiple stomachs1

• Topping our list of animals with multiple stomachs is the Baird's beaked whale, which can have more than 13 stomachs! (killerinsideme.com)

Microbes5

• Fermentation produces food both for these microbes and ruminants. (biotrick.com)
• Microbes living in ruminant stomach are an example of Symbiosis , in which members of two different species live in close contact with each other and get mutual benefit. (biotrick.com)
• The microbes use some of these nutrients for their own metabolism, and in doing so generate fatty acids, which the ruminant can absorb into its blood through the wall of the rumen and can use in its own metabolism. (open.edu)
• These stomach chambers contain microbes that are essential to digesting food. (utah.gov)
• But, the crux of it is that ruminants rely on a community of microbes to break pasture down into fatty acids for the host animal to use as its energy source. (country-wide.co.nz)

Omasum9

• Finally food from omasum passes to Abomasum, which contains the ruminant's own digestive enzymes and corresponds to a true stomach. (biotrick.com)
• The ruminant stomach is divided into the nonglandular forestomach (rumen, reticulum, omasum) and the terminal glandular stomach, the abomasum. (pressbooks.pub)
• The omasum is the third part of a ruminant's stomach. (open.edu)
• The fourth or digestive stomach of a ruminant, which leads from the third stomach omasum . (everything2.com)
• The omasum, also known as the bible, the fardel, the manyplies and the psalterium, is the third compartment of the stomach in ruminants. (killerinsideme.com)
• Ruminant stomachs have four compartments: the rumen, the reticulum, the omasum and the abomasum. (killerinsideme.com)
• The four chambers of the ruminant stomach are the reticulum, rumen, omasum and abomasum. (killerinsideme.com)

Deer3

• Deer, elk, and pronghorn are ruminants. (co.us)
