I don’t know. Many vegetarian animals are in fact opportunistic omnivores.

Yup, plenty of videos out there of horses eating chicks (baby chickens)
The most memorable 'nature' experience I've ever had involved a squirrel and a sparrow.
A squirrel was calmly and methodically foraging as squirrels tend to do. A sparrow landed nearby to do the same. They continued on their own for 10-20 seconds seemingly uninterested in each others presence until the squirrel ramped up from 0-100 instantly, viciously attacking the sparrow. I don't think the sparrow even had time to process what happened, there was no struggle from the sparrow.
A sparrow really has no chance against anything that wishes to do it violence if it can't see it coming
Joke's on the hippo, I hate me too 😎
Reminds me of that scene in Jurassic Park, where Grant tells the girl not to worry about the Brachiosaurus, since it's a herbivore
They eat meat but they do it rarely.
African buffalo, too
I suspect that if you just call them bison they won't have any beef with you.
