Why animals can eat other animals intestines with feces?

819 viewsBiologyOther

This is something that always baffled me and seeing a video of a bear eating a salmon, it reminded me of this: The bear ate the salmon with it’s intestines, raw, no questions or care. Just bearing his own way through the salmon, barely a care in the world. And, like, I’ve seen videos of lions eating antelopes and zebra’s intestines also, and no issue there. Why? Would that work for all kinds of animals?

To add to the other responses already posted, humans do it too actually. We also eat small organisms whole, with no cooking, intestinal tract and all. Oysters are probably the most common example of this, but there are others as well.
