A necrovore is an animal that feeds specifically on the dead flesh of other animals, rather than hunting live prey. It’s a type of carnivorous scavenger, not a general trash-eating opportunist. Unlike typical scavengers (like raccoons or seagulls), necrovores specialize in corpses, playing a vital ecological role in breaking them down.
