to keep the body of an animal healthy and warm
Different animals has different digestive system that suit their feeding
standard and requirements

Differences between Ruminants and non-ruminants
Structural differences:
Ruminant: has a complex stomach
: has four stomach compartments
Non-ruminant: has a simple stomach
: has less than four stomach compartment
Differences in feed utilized:
Ruminant : can feed on roughages (because of the presence of micro-
organism in the rumen that assist in digestion of roughage)
: can utilize urea (since micro-organism can change urea
into microbial proteins)
Non-ruminant: cannot feed on roughage ( such animal doesn’t have
rumen hence no micro-organism that assist in digestion of roughage)
: cannot utilize urea (doesn’t have micro-organism that
change urea into microbial protein, hence excess urea will be changed
into ammonia which is very dangerous for such animals)
