Hypocarnivore

A hypocarnivore is an animal that consumes less than 30% meat for its diet, the majority of which consists of fungi, fruits, and other plant material. Examples of living hypocarnivores are the grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis), black bear (Ursus americanus), binturong (Arctictis binturong) and kinkajou (Potos flavus) The evolutionary division of carnivorans into three groups, including hypercarnivore and mesocarnivore, appears to have occurred about 40 million years ago (mya).
