Do bears eat poop?


Rate This Answer

Koalas and other bears have special organisms in their digestive systems called microbes. These microbes help break down hard-to-digest food. These animals’ babies aren’t born with microbes, and eat their parents’ poop to establish them in their digestive systems. Animals also eat their poop or their babies’ poop to hide the scent of the poop from predators.
