This trope, along with Predators Are Mean, are a fairly common approach to Carnivore Confusion in fiction. Basically, all the villains are carnivores and all the herbivores, particularly if they can talk, are heroes. Like Predators Are Mean, this trope has been around for such a long time that it may be one of The Oldest Ones in the Book. Herbivores being friendly often, but not always goes hand-in-hand with predators being mean. This trope and Predators Are Mean are so strong culturally that people assume that many Real Life predators (whether omnivorous or carnivorous by nature) are mean, evil, and nasty, and all the herbivores are cute, cuddly, and friendly. This trope is not Truth in Television for the most part. Herbivores may attack a human to claim or defend their territory, protect their children, drive away a potential predator, or just because they’re in a bad mood. Indeed, the most dangerous large mammals in the world are actually big herbivores; the hippopotamus and the elephant are known to attack and kill humans even without being provoked. In North America, more people are killed by cattle each year than by bears, mountain lions, venomous snakes, sharks, and alligators combined. In other words, just because an animal won't eat you, doesn't mean it won't hurt you. Conversely, domesticated dogs and cats, both of whom are inclined to be friendly with humans, are inherently carnivorous. Many omnivores, such as the whale shark, are never a threat to humans. Temple Grandin's book, Animals in Translation, explains that domesticated cattle can be a lot harder to handle compared to most felines (wild or domestic, big, small, or medium). A domestic bovine may attack a person in order to exert dominance or protect a calf, but a tiger will not do so unless its prey drive is triggered, as it is a largely solitary animal that, true to nature of all cats, does not care about social hierarchy. Some herbivores are portrayed as threatening and aggressive on a fairly regular basis. Boars (technically omnivorous), goats, rams, bulls, stallions, rhinoceroses, elephants, hippopotamuses, kangaroos, and gorillas are especially prone to this. When dinosaurs are concerned, you can expect ceratopsians, pachycephalosaurs (technically omnivorous), stegosaurs, and ankylosaurs to also be portrayed this way. On the subject of insects, expect this to be true of bees and moreso termites. Another common exception, when herbivores are depicted as dangerous, is if they get involved in an Animal Stampede. Goes hand-in-hand with and opposite of Predators Are Mean. The opposite is Xenophobic Herbivore. Often associated with Carnivore Confusion. Subtrope to Good Animals, Evil Animals, Always Lawful Good, and Virtuous Vegetarianism. |

Inverted in A Bug's Life. The protagonists are omnivorous ants (though they're only shown eating plants), and their allies include predators such as a mantis, a ladybug, and a spider. The villains, by contrast, are herbivorous grasshoppers. | |

In the Monster Hunter series, most herbivores, like Aptonoths, really are friendly and peaceful. However, the Kestodons and Gastodons from Monster Hunter: World or Bullfangos in the rest of the series will attack if you linger near them for too long. And some of the large monsters are herbivores, like Diablos, which is anything but friendly. It subsists on cacti yet is one of the most aggressive monsters introduced in Low Rank, being in fact one of the postgame bosses in its debuting game (as it's found after Final Boss Monoblos). | |

In Redwall, squirrels (technically omnivores, but mostly eat plants), hares, and other herbivores, and a few omnivores such as badgers, mice, and hedgehogs, are the heroes, where wholly carnivorous species such as weasels, stoats, wild cats, snakes, hawks, ferrets, foxes (actually omnivorous, but still predatory), and the like are the villains. This is rather odd considering the fact that the most prominent species, the mice of Redwall, are omnivores but never eat any meat besides fish. One would reason that they never eat any intelligent creatures, but there has been at least one intelligent talking fish in the series. | |

The Simpsons often subvert this trope quite realistically. In "Little Big Mom", Lisa tries to approach a herd of deer because they look harmless, but when she gets close enough they turn ferocious and try to attack her. In "Four Women and a Manicure", the Wicked Witch of Snow White mocks a group of cute woodlands critters, most of which are herbivores. The critters proceed to gang up and tear the witch apart as she screams in agony. Doubly subverted in a school video starring Troy McClure in "Lisa the Vegetarian",note you might remember from such videos as "2-3=Negative Fun" and "Firecrackers: The Silent Killer" where he convinces Bobbynote Jimmy that it's okay to eat meat. McClure warns Jimmy that "if a cow had the chance he'd eat you and everyone you care about," as ominous music plays and the camera zooms in on a cow's face. However, the cow's face is so placid, that the idea of a threatening cow seems ludicrous. In "The Seemingly Never-Ending Story", Lisa's story-within-the-story has her encountering a goat in the forest, hoping it'll be friendly to a fellow herbivore, until it chases her into Mr. Burns' mansion. It turns out it was trying to bring back her necklace which she'd lost in the woods. In "Simpson Safari", Lisa expresses disbelief at a hippo eating someone, subverting the trope. |

Kevin & Kell likes to subvert this often. Kevin and Kell's daughter is a rabbit that eats meat. Kevin himself is generally friendly, but is not above punching predators trying to eat him. In fact, for a mini-arc it ended up a problem for Kevin as one of predators sued him for "breach of nature, rabbits should run". And was retorted "breach of nature, predators should eat rather than sue". And it should be pointed out that Kevin's ex Angelique, genetically a rabbit (but posing as a rat), is one of the most vicious characters in the comic. | |

In The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG, a character with the Herbivore trait gains a small bonus to their Cute score, making them better at social interactions where they need to appear friendly and non-threatening. This doesn't necessarily mean that the character is friendly or non-threatening, just that they're more readily perceived as such by others than they would be if they ate meat. | |

Zigzagged in Toriko: most of the dangerous beasts they encounter are carnivorous and highly destructive, though the backstory of the Battle Wolf mentions how a colossal, herbivorous kaiju known as the "Death Gore" nearly destroyed all life on Earth due to their insatiable appetite for whole forests. Played straight among the incredibly powerful Eight Kings: non carnivorous ones like Horse King Herakles and the Deer King Sky Deer are the least aggressive of the eight (though by no mean less dangerous...) | |

The Jurassic World website lists almost all of its herbivores as having low aggression, with the exception of the armor-plated Ankylosaurus, whose aggression is listed as "medium". In fact, across the series as a whole, not a single herbivorous dinosaur— not even the stereotypically "aggressive" ones like ceratopsians and ankylosaurs— has ever been shown killing a human onscreen. | |

In ARK: Survival Evolved, most herbivores don't mind you unless you provoke them, but many will fight back once provoked, and Therizinosaurus and Kentrosaurus will attack you just for being too close. Played laughably straight with Diplodocus, as its only "attack" is to harmlessly nudge its target, and the Dino Dossier spells out that it's trying to play (even with predators). It doesn't even have an attack stat. The Amargasaurus of the Lost Island DLC map is actively aggressive, and part of its taming requires you to help it battle its enemies (without becoming one of them!). | |

Dinoverse: In the first set of books, the Leptoceratopses abduct Candayce and shove Janine around, and Candayce figures out that they were trying to protect her — she's in the body of a Leptoceratops and they don't understand why she's hanging out with a Tyrannosaurus rex. Similarly, when they encounter a Triceratops herd, it is hostile in defense of its nests, but is less so later, realizing that a little Leptoceratops and a wounded Quetzalcoatlus aren't threats. The Ankylosaurus met later on is friendly to the boy in the Ankylosaurus body, but wary at best of all the others. | |

Don't Starve: Beefalo are aggressive during mating season (when their hindquarters turn red), but otherwise neutral. If you attack one, all beefalo in the area will fight back. The underground rabbit folk are militantly vegan. If you carry or pick up any meat, fish, or monster meat product or meat-derived foodstuff in their presence, they will attack relentlessly. This includes rabbits you have "befriended" with carrots. The release of playable Merm character Wurt reveals that Merms are vegetarian. They remain hostile to any players that aren't Wurt, unless Wurt allies with a Merm King, in which case they become neutral. |

Tootsie is also in the reboot of the previously mentioned show. However, much like Bubba subverting the stereotype that Neanderthals were stupid, this version of Tootsie is a stark aversion to this trope, being very territorial and aggressive. Bubba does ride on her temporarily as a reference to their original relationship, but it's treated more like a cowboy trying to stay on a bucking bull. | |

Jurassic World Dominion averts this trope, though mainly not with the dinosaurs. While the carnivorous dinosaurs are a major threat to the heroes, the danger to civilization as a whole actually comes from genetically engineered locusts created by BioSyn, which are devouring food plants around the world. For the aversion on dinosaur side, we have Therizinosaurus, which, while herbivorous, kills a deer that gets in its way and actively pursues the human protagonists for no clear discernable reason. Notably, it was the first time a herbivore was Played for Horror in the franchise, no differently from the carnivores. | |

Ring World: Averted in practice — the herbivorous Puppeteers are collectively ruthless, paranoid and deceitful, while Pak protectors are xenophobic killing machines who eat nothing but tree roots — but the Kzinti are under the cultural bias that anything that isn't a carnivore is inherently weak, cowardly, and/or stupid; "you don't need brains to sneak up on a leaf!" They've faced many nasty subversions to this expectation throughout the series; Puppeteers, Pak, the "grass giants" on Ringworld, humanity, and so on. | |

Inverted with a vengeance in The Lost Fleet. The bear-cows are a herbivore race whose fear of predators manifests as omnicidal mania. Meanwhile, the obviously predatory dancers are quite reasonable and more than willing to engage in diplomacy and trade as soon as the translation problems that make both sides come across as oddly patronizing are worked out. | |

And this while one of the raptors was still recovering from an Iguanodon recently gouging out one of their eyes. | |

Tyranno's Claw has several dinosaurs, the only ones which aren't hostile being a pachycephalosaurus who attacks in self-defense (where the sole caveman it killed is an Accidental Murder) and the Gentle Giant triceratops who befriends the main cast. Meanwhile, the pterosaur, giant rodent and ape-people tries killing everything in sight, while the film's main threat is a T-Rex. | |

In Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Snow White quickly gains the sympathy of a large group of Woodland Creatures, who do everything they can to help her. Nearly all of them are herbivores, with the sole exception of a couple of raccoons.note Raccoons are technically omnivores, and don't even belong in Europe. | |

Prehistoric Planet averts this with the Dreadnoughtus: contrary to the typical portrayal of sauropods in pop culture they're shown engaging in violent, and often lethal combat with one another during the mating season, involving thumb-claw stabbing, neck-smashing and even raking their teeth on each other's throats. | |

On Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Federation President Jaresh-Inyo is a Grazerite, a sentient species descended from herbivores and averse to confrontation. Since The Federation is in the middle of a Space Cold War with the Dominion, Admiral Leyton fears that he won't have what it takes to fight should that cold war heat up. | |

Subverted in Far Cry 3 and Far Cry 4. 3 has water buffalo that generally keep to themselves, but if you walk through their territory, they'll most likely chase you down and try to ram you. 4 has yaks which are pretty much just reskins of 3's water buffalo, as well as rhinos and elephants. The rhinos basically act the same way as the yaks, only they're faster, tougher, and do a lot more damage. The elephants, on the other hand, will not bother you at all unless you attack them — they'll even let you ride them, provided you have the necessary perk. However, once provoked, these elephants are very dangerous — and you can use this to your advantage, pitting them against your enemies and even riding them into battle. Despite the subversion in Far Cry 3, the binoculars identify animals as herbivore and predator, giving a clear distinction on which animals can attack. The identification is based on whether or not they're aggressive as opposed to their actual diet (e.g. Buffalo are tagged as predators). | |

Mothra is among the most peaceful of all kaiju and happens to be a nectar-feeding butterfly/moth. So long as you don't kidnap her fairy companions or harm her children in any way, she won't hurt you. And if you do, you'll find that she wrecks cities as well as any Kaiju. | |

Jurassic Park Horror: Zig Zag. The herbivores are less prone to attack humans than the carnivores but that doesn't mean they are not dangerous. A group of Hypsilophodon foxii stalks, hunts and devours a park worker. A Triceratops fatally impales another worker. The Stegosaurus is played straight. It not only befriends the farmer and his cattle, it also protects them from a pack of Velociraptors that attacks the farm. |

DuckTales: The 1987 series has the Triceratops Tootsie. She is the pet of Bubba the Caveduck who is very sweet to most characters she interacts with. Tootsie is also in the reboot of the previously mentioned show. However, much like Bubba subverting the stereotype that Neanderthals were stupid, this version of Tootsie is a stark aversion to this trope, being very territorial and aggressive. Bubba does ride on her temporarily as a reference to their original relationship, but it's treated more like a cowboy trying to stay on a bucking bull. |

In Minecraft, most mobs based on herbivorous animals like cows, sheep, horses or camels are passive creatures that will follow any player holding their favourite food and otherwise just wander around, fleeing only when attacked. The exceptions include rabbits, who will flee from any player not holding a carrot (or a dandelion); and goats, who look out to ram anything staying still. | |

Jurassic Park: In Jurassic Park (1993), Dr. Grant calms Alex down when she sees nearby Brachiosaurus by reassuring her that they're plant-eaters. Inverted in The Lost World: Jurassic Park — Sarah upsets a Stegosaurus and barely escapes with her life. In this case it was justified, as she accidentally frightened their baby and the adults moved to protect their young from a potential threat. The Jurassic World website lists almost all of its herbivores as having low aggression, with the exception of the armor-plated Ankylosaurus, whose aggression is listed as "medium". In fact, across the series as a whole, not a single herbivorous dinosaur— not even the stereotypically "aggressive" ones like ceratopsians and ankylosaurs— has ever been shown killing a human onscreen. Jurassic World Dominion averts this trope, though mainly not with the dinosaurs. While the carnivorous dinosaurs are a major threat to the heroes, the danger to civilization as a whole actually comes from genetically engineered locusts created by BioSyn, which are devouring food plants around the world. For the aversion on dinosaur side, we have Therizinosaurus, which, while herbivorous, kills a deer that gets in its way and actively pursues the human protagonists for no clear discernable reason. Notably, it was the first time a herbivore was Played for Horror in the franchise, no differently from the carnivores. |

Averted with a vengeance in the Lost World RPG retelling of The Lost World: Jurassic Park set in the Amalgam'verse. While the carnivores such as the Troodon and Carnotaurus menace the expedition and BioSyn hunters, the only docile dinosaurs the team meets are all carnivores such as a Suchomimus. The most aggressive non-hybrid dinosaur encountered is a Mamenchisaurus the team uses to destroy the hunter camp, during which released Triceratops, Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus, and Pachycephalosaurus all join in on trampling or attacking anyone they come across in their dash for freedom. | |

In Dino System, most herbivores are usually quite placid and ignore the player unless they are attacked. Which can make it all the more surprising during survivor mode when a calm male Triceratops enters breeding condition and suddenly starts trying to kill the human survivor. | |

Spore has creatures evolving. The first two stages (Cell and Creature) are spent deciding on a creature's diet. Later stages have the creatures evolved more, with their own moralities. Herbivores tend to be nice and social, carnivores tend to be hostile, while omnivores tend to be neutral and economic. Spore plays with this somewhat. When you advance to a new stage, you get bonuses and special abilities depending on how you spent the previous ones. Killing and eating your rivals tends to give you combat bonuses when you acquire sapience, while socializing with other species and eating plants gives you social abilities instead. So if you begin your evolution as a carnivore, you are encouraged to develop into a warlike civilization, while herbivores are encouraged to play peacefully. However, you can defy this by simply not making use of your bonuses in the Tribal and Civilization stages. | |

The Dinosaur Lords: The eponymous dinosaur mounts are most often herbivores (hadrosaurs, parasaurolophus, pachycephalosaurus, etc.), but no less deadly for it. There are some carnivore mounts, and Deinonychus are used in a manner similar to hunting dogs, but they tend to be Awesome, but Impractical. To counter Karyl's otherwise-invincible Triceratops line, Rob sends a herd of Ankylosaurs their way. It's specifically stated that they'll eagerly fight due to being natural competitors for territory and pasture, not to mention being very good at killing each other (triceratops by flipping the ankylosaurs over with their horns, ankylosaurs by smashing the triceratops' legs). |

In The Lion Guard, Beshte the hippopotamus is the sole herbivore of the eponymous group as the rest are carnivores (Kion the lion, Fuli the cheetah, and Ono the egret) and an omnivore (Bunga the honey badger). Nonetheless, most of the show's villains are carnivores and it's guaranteed there will be villainous omnivores as well, but herbivores are invariably non-malicious and even ones that are not friendly can be reasoned with. Season 3 finally brings in some herbivore villains: the porcupine henchmen of Mama Binturong. | |
