  1. better how?


  2. it would be bigger threat to nature because if all animals would be herbivorous then earths vagitation would be vanish.

  3. Its impossible to live in

  4. if everyone who be herbivores then there would be overpopulation, overgrazing would take place, Yes but humans can grow more trees. But As we can see when there are carnivores in this world there are not enough tree's for humans and there is a lot of deforestation taking place. So i think the world is better as it is.

  5. The sole director had designed evrything for you .Now you  shall imagine ever so many alternatives .wish you best of luck .

  6. no these may cause over-gazing and we also can't eat vegetables

  7. This question is pretty generic and depends on lots of factors like how many animals exist , what are the climatic conditions what is their growth rate etc.

    Technically speaking assuming you have ample edible plant life in this world and all animals living at that time start eating plants leaves only (not killing the plant). Also all the living animals have automatic check on their population growth by natural lifespan and reproduction limitation then all animals will be saved from one of the biggest pain scare, that is untimely and violent death to satisfy someone else's hunger.

    Of course that still leaves greed, anger etc to be dealt but overall life would be more secure and happier.

  8. Over grazing will occur,and more release of Carbon di oxide,.Every thing is going right now expect for these.................

  9. no

  10. if all the animals become herbivores the population of each animal will rapidly increase which will result in space insufficiency for humans....

    at present they are hunting for food, if your circumstances happens they will hunt for shelter.

  11. Herbivorous means eating plants only. I living beings eat herbivorous the balance in the nature disturbed. God made this world and all living cratures to balance the nature. But the Human being spoiling that balance. Observe long living creatures have less number of reproduction and short living creatures have more number of reproduction. For example house fly and elephant.So, some has to be veg other non veg

  12. NO, It would be worst place and ultimately they may become cannibals

  13. all the plants would go away!

  14. NO WAY! . IT WUD RESULT IN ECO SYSTEM COLLAPSE , FOOD CHAIN IMBALANCE,etc

  15. Plants would be eaten by all the herbivorous who would then outnumber us a 100 to 1........all species would fight over a patch of grass......many would go extinct.......all the humans would hav no choice but to eat meat....quarter of the population would refuse 2 do so due to religious or other personal reasons....another quarter would die bcoz sum idiotic dictator or president would attack or bomb another country to aqcuire grassland.....lack of vegetables n excess of meat in the diet of who do would make them vulnerable to wierd diseases.....so ya basically it will be humanitys doom

  16. no

    there will be no more plants on earth

    due to human activities(deforestration)

    and if animals become herbivorous

    the no of tress will be gradually decreased

  17. if it becomes a reality then there will be imbalance in nature , so it is better to allow the animals to be both herbivorous and carnivorous.imbalance of nature will lead to a greater problem that cannot be imagined at this point of juncture

  18. Nope, Overgrazing will cause deprivation or crops/plants. Overpopulation of preyed and preying animals, and humans may even be forced to kill animals at larger scale due to over population.

  19. for some people its yes but ......

    THE NO. OF ANIMALS WILL INCREASE AND THERE WILL BE MORE ANIMALS THAN HUMANS U UNDERSTAND????

  20. No, Mother Nature knows best,how to keep things in balance.

  21. No because their quantity will increase

  22. To answer this question, all you have to do is look at the examples of how much damage is caused to ecologies of islands when a new species is introduced, which has no natural predator.

    Animals can out compete each other in their ability to gather food, store food, occupy each others habitable spaces, damage each others habitable spaces, or simply step on the young/eggs of another species.

    Humans are wiping out animals, not because we eat them, its because we don't give them anywhere to live, because we are already using the space - the same applies to how animals dispalce each other.

    so the answer i'm afraid, is it would not be a better place to live.

  23. It will be a threat to the environment because if all the animals become herbivores that  means the amount of plants in the world would decrease and herbivores will increase. Since there would be no more plants for the herbivores to eat they would eventually starve to death. Also to much herbivores will cause diseases to spread. That is why carnivores are in the world today. They help balance nature by eating the herbivores so the plants can have enough time to grow back. Last if all the animals became herbivores the human population will slowly decrease because human are omnivores and the we need both meat and plant to survive. Plants help our bodies fight diseases by turning it to medicine and if all the animals became herbivores plants will start to disappear and we can't make medicine without plants and our defense system will slowly stop. Plants also make oxygen for us and without plants we couldn't breath because the atmosphere will have to much carbon dioxide in it. I hope this help answer your question.

  24. no. as someone said, overgrazing can occur and less CO2 will be absorbed by plants.

  25. Well you tell me first are going to become a herbivorus rather than what you are now  An Omnivorus !

    Hey where wud be the balance of Nature be !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    No Balance no earth as simple as i can put !!!!!!!!

  26. It's impossible, an impossible concept. Even if it did happen, nothing would last long.

  27. Animal overpopulation can cause problems as well.

  28. I think this will be a threat to nature.Food chains would be disturbed.Ecosystems would be damaged becoz of rise of herbivores' population.Many beautiful species of animals would be exterminated.

  29. It would be a disaster

    there must be a equilibrium

  30. if all the animals bcome herbivorous it will become difficult to live in bcause animals will be more then the human beings and they want only plants to eat.

  31. it will cause imbalance in the numbers of animals. over breeding without predation will flood the world with herbivores, and very soon starvation and epidemics will replace predators as a way to maintain the number of animals.
