If all animals on the earth would become herbivorous, would it be a better place to live in or it would be a bigger threat to the nature?

It will be a threat to the environment because if all the animals become herbivores that means the amount of plants in the world would decrease and herbivores will increase. Since there would be no more plants for the herbivores to eat they would eventually starve to death. Also to much herbivores will cause diseases to spread. That is why carnivores are in the world today. They help balance nature by eating the herbivores so the plants can have enough time to grow back. Last if all the animals became herbivores the human population will slowly decrease because human are omnivores and the we need both meat and plant to survive. Plants help our bodies fight diseases by turning it to medicine and if all the animals became herbivores plants will start to disappear and we can't make medicine without plants and our defense system will slowly stop. Plants also make oxygen for us and without plants we couldn't breath because the atmosphere will have to much carbon dioxide in it. I hope this help answer your question.

Well if all humans were herbivors than yes, the world would be a better place all around. There would be much more land for wildlife, instead of cattle and pig farms and factories. There would be a lot less pollution; a single pig farms produces more waste in one year than all of new your city does in a year.
And people in general would be a lot more friendly and care for the value of life, we could all share and life together in peace. The hormones and antibiotics that meat animals are jacked up with are thought to cause aggressiveness, not to mention colon and other cancers.

However, if all animals were herbervors, there would be some problems, for instance whales, for example are not herbivorous, nor are many other ocean dwelling species, therefore, there would be a boom and overpopulation of fish in the sea, and no asians to fishe them out and eat them cause they too would be herbervors. Get it. Antelope and other grazers well beings depend on predators for theri own survival, otherwise their populations would skyrocket and many would succumb to overpopulation diseases.
Hoep this helps a bit.

Herbivorous means eating plants only. I living beings eat herbivorous the balance in the nature disturbed. God made this world and all living cratures to balance the nature. But the Human being spoiling that balance. Observe long living creatures have less number of reproduction and short living creatures have more number of reproduction. For example house fly and elephant.So, some has to be veg other non veg

This question is pretty generic and depends on lots of factors like how many animals exist , what are the climatic conditions what is their growth rate etc.

Technically speaking assuming you have ample edible plant life in this world and all animals living at that time start eating plants leaves only (not killing the plant). Also all the living animals have automatic check on their population growth by natural lifespan and reproduction limitation then all animals will be saved from one of the biggest pain scare, that is untimely and violent death to satisfy someone else's hunger.

Of course that still leaves greed, anger etc to be dealt but overall life would be more secure and happier.

It would be big threat to the nature because this would create overpopulation of animals and resources would start depleting.Then you will see just animals around you.The death rate of animals would decrease and overpopulation would increase.All animals would eat the plants and their would be no plants left and their would be lot of amount of carbon dioxide in the air which will trap more heat and make hearth like a hot desert and no life on it.Moreover Co2 will make animals and human suffocate and thus end of life.

To answer this question, all you have to do is look at the examples of how much damage is caused to ecologies of islands when a new species is introduced, which has no natural predator.

Animals can out compete each other in their ability to gather food, store food, occupy each others habitable spaces, damage each others habitable spaces, or simply step on the young/eggs of another species.

Humans are wiping out animals, not because we eat them, its because we don't give them anywhere to live, because we are already using the space - the same applies to how animals dispalce each other.

so the answer i'm afraid, is it would not be a better place to live.

if it becomes a reality then there will be imbalance in nature , so it is better to allow the animals to be both herbivorous and carnivorous.imbalance of nature will lead to a greater problem that cannot be imagined at this point of juncture

if everyone who be herbivores then there would be overpopulation, overgrazing would take place, Yes but humans can grow more trees. But As we can see when there are carnivores in this world there are not enough tree's for humans and there is a lot of deforestation taking place. So i think the world is better as it is.

I think this will be a threat to nature.Food chains would be disturbed.Ecosystems would be damaged becoz of rise of herbivores' population.Many beautiful species of animals would be exterminated.
