What is what are monogastric animals?

Monogastric animals are those that have a single-chambered stomach, also known as a non-ruminant digestive system. This means that the digestive process is limited to the stomach and small intestine, and the food is quickly digested and absorbed. Examples of monogastric animals include dogs, cats, pigs, horses, and humans. These animals are generally considered omnivores, as they have the ability to eat both plant and animal-based foods. They typically have simple digestive systems, which are less complex than those of ruminant animals (such as cows and sheep) which have multi-chambered stomachs. Monogastric animals are commonly raised for their meat, milk, and eggs.
