What do eland eat?

Eland are herbivores, meaning they eat plants. Their diet consists mainly of:

* Grasses: They are grazers, so grasses are a large part of their diet.

* Leaves: They also browse on trees and shrubs, eating leaves.

* Fruits and seeds: They supplement their diet with fruits and seeds whenever available.

* Bark: Sometimes they will eat bark, especially during the dry season when other food sources are scarce.

Fun fact: Eland are considered "selective grazers," meaning they prefer to eat certain types of grasses and leaves over others. They have a large digestive system that helps them break down tough plant matter and extract nutrients.
