Would a gopher eat a parsley plant?

Gophers are herbivores and primarily feed on plant roots, tubers, and other underground plant parts. While parsley is not a common food source for gophers, they may eat parsley plants if no other preferred food sources are available. Gophers are known to sample a wide variety of plants, so it is possible for them to consume parsley, especially if they are hungry or if the parsley plant is easily accessible.
