    Animals in Canada

    Animals are many-celled, responsive heterotrophs (eaters of various things). Herbivores eat plants; carnivores eat flesh; omnivores, such as humans, eat nearly everything. Parasites inhabit and subsist in other organisms. The shape of animals, the way they move, and how they sense, seize and swallow food suggest that the need to find an organic food source is one of the most important characteristics of their lives. Animals range from less than 0.1 mm (some rotifers and gastrotrichs) to 30 m in length, weighing as much as 150 tonnes (blue whale).
