It’s called postprandial lethargy. Part of the evolutionary reason it exists is to guarantee the animal will stay put for a while and digest at least some of the meal it just had, since energy was spent to get it (remembering, humans were hunters) and need to at least break even. Also, digesting food is a taxing process.
