Examples of carnivores in a Sentence

  1. Michel Toulet:

    I've heard it said that we are creating carnivores, i'm sorry ; we have canine teeth for eating meat. Man is an omnivore.

  2. Emily Yuko Hallett:

    I'm most excited about the skinning marks on the carnivores, because I haven't seen this pattern described before. And my hope is that archaeologists working in much older sites also start looking for this pattern.

  3. Anthony Friscia:

    We see that same pattern in the fossil record of terrestrial carnivores, for instance, you see a' cat-like' predator arise many different times before you get the modern radiation of cats. This kind of repeated evolution of similar ecologies is the basis of so many studies of how evolution works in the long term.

  4. Mike Romano:

    The east coast of Yorkshire is known as the Dinosaur Coast for very good reasons, although these different types do not necessarily represent the same number of different dinosaurs, they do indicate a diverse ecosystem of animals including both carnivores and herbivores that roamed the Jurassic coastal plain and (river) complex some 160-175 million years ago. The prints also allow us to interpret their behaviour. Thus, we have records of walking, running and swimming dinosaurs.

  5. Julie Meachen:

    To date, these are the most complete Pleistocene carnivore remains ever found, it is a pretty big deal, especially for scientists like me who study carnivores and big cats.
