A ruminant's digestive tract has 4 sections to its stomach. Because the plant matter that most ruminants enjoy is hard to digest, ruminants have to regurgitate food to chew it again (e.i., "chewing the cud"). The four stomachs allow the hard-to-digest food to be digested many times.

∙ 11y agoA pseudo ruminant is an animal that has a stomach with three compartments rather than the four compartments typical of a true ruminant. The main chambers of a pseudo-ruminant are the recticulum, omasum and abomasum. Camels, llamas and alpacas are examples of pseudo ruminants.
