Did you know that, strangely enough, not all members of the order of carnivora are true carnivores...? The panda is a true herbivore, eating only bamboo leafs, and also the kinkajou, an arboreal mammal of tropical America with a long prehensile tail, primarily eats fruit. Bears and raccoons for example are omnivorous. Not all members of the order Carnivora live entirely on land, for example, sea lions and seals have aquatic lifestyles. What members of the order of Carnivora have in common is their characteristic skull shape, and their dentition including prominent canines and carnassials. Members of the order carnivora have highly developed senses of hearing, sight and smell (different ways in different species). The other senses are not as important to them as these.
