Ruminants such as cows and buffaloes swallow their food hurriedly and store it in a part of the stomach called rumen. The cellulose of the food is digested here by the action of certain bacteria, which are not present in humans. Later their partially digested food is returned to the buccal cavity of the animals in small lumps and animals chew it to complete the process of digestion. This process is called rumination.
