A hominid’s primary food source is typically herbivorous/frugivorous, meaning that they eat leaves and fruits for the bulk of their food.

Humans are classed anatomically in the family known as Hominidae, which includes other primates such as the Eastern and Western gorillas, Bornean and Sumatran orangutans, common chimpanzees, and the pygmy chimpanzees, also known as bonobos. Humans are anatomically and physiologically similar to all of these animals, sharing as much as 99.6 percent (some scientists say we share a greater percentage) of the same genetic material. The species-specific diet of humans is therefore also herbivorous/frugivorous, as in nature all animals that are anatomically and physiologically similar thrive on similar foods.
