Many herbivorous and omnivorous mammals, such as humans and horses, require incisors to cut food. Carnivorous animals, such as felines and canines, have fewer incisors and use canine and split teeth to chop food. Elephant incisors have evolved into long teeth, while rodents such as mice have their incisors constantly growing, so they will be shorted by scratching.
