Since when has carnivory been a word, what the hell

[–] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 months ago

Since as long as carnivore has been a word, probably. Carnivory is the noun for the act of eating meat, carnivore is the noun for a creature that eats meat and carnivorous is the adjective to describe a creature that eats meat.
