Cattle, sheep, and goats possess a dental structure that includes a hard dental pad on the upper jaw instead of upper front teeth, while horses have upper incisors. Additionally, ruminants like cattle and sheep have a complex stomach with multiple chambers for fermentation, which influences their chewing and grinding mechanisms. Horses, being non-ruminants, have a single-chambered stomach and rely on a different grinding action for their fibrous diet due to their continuous grazing habits. These anatomical differences reflect their distinct dietary adaptations and feeding behaviors.
