What is an animal called that eat meat?

A carnivore is an animal that eats other animals. The term is derived from the Latin words caro, meaning 'flesh', and vorare, meaning 'to devour'. Carnivores have a number of adaptations that allow them to hunt and consume other animals, including sharp teeth, claws, and a high-energy diet. Some common examples of carnivores include lions, tigers, wolves, and bears.
