What are ruminants?

Ruminants : Mammals that are able to acquire nutrients from plant-based food by fermenting it in a specialized stomach prior to digestion .

The process of rechewing the cud to further break down plant matter and stimulate digestion is called rumination. The word "ruminant" comes from the Latin ruminare, which means "to chew over again".
