Question

Grazing animals swallow the grass and store it in a part of their stomach known as __.

Answer 1

Grazing animals like sheep, cattle, goats, deer, giraffes, and llamas are ruminant animals. This means that they have a four-chambered stomach. They swallow the grass and store it in a part of their stomach known as the rumen. Rumen is the first chamber in the alimentary canal of ruminant animals. It serves as the primary site for microbial fermentation of ingested food.
