What did early animals eat?

Eating Meat and Marrow The diet of the earliest hominins was probably somewhat similar to the diet of modern chimpanzees: omnivorous, including large quantities of fruit, leaves, flowers, bark, insects and meat (e.g., Andrews & Martin 1991; Milton 1999; Watts 2008).

What plants did early humans eat?

Ancient man also ate plants that you can’t find at a grocery store, like ferns and cattails. His relative dietary proportions of meats, nuts, fruits, and vegetables are in dispute, and probably varied significantly with location.

Are plants and animals evolved from the same thing?

The best answer is neither evolved, they were created by God just as the Bible says, the plants first, then the animals. They were created one day apart. If they had not been, the plants would’ve died before they could have support of the animals. Then the animals would never have evolved because there’s nothing for them to eat.

Were there animal carnivores before the flood?

Specifically, I immediately became concerned when the author made an assumption that due to the fossil being found in Cretaceous rock (signs of widespread catastrophic burial), and the bitten dinosaur had obvious signs of healing growth over the attacker’s dislodged tooth, there were animal carnivores before the flood.

How did plants evolve from algae to animals?

Some algae became multicellular, and one line of these gave rise to the land plants. Land plants arose after complex animal life, including vertebrates. But mammals emerged as a distinct group long after. The animals beat the plants by almost 200 million years.

What does the Bible say about the animal diet?

The language God uses contrasts the animal diet with the previous plant diet: “Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you; and as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.”
