Ruminantia (gcide) | Ruminantia \Ru`mi*nan"ti*a\, n. pl. [NL.] (Zool.)
A division of Artiodactyla having four stomachs. This
division includes the camels, deer, antelopes, goats, sheep,
neat cattle, and allies.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The vegetable food, after the first mastication, enters
the first stomach (r). It afterwards passes into the
second (n), where it is moistened, and formed into
pellets which the animal has the power of bringing back
to the mouth to be chewed again, after which it is
swallowed into the third stomach (m), whence it passes
to the fourth (s), where it is finally digested.
