Hippos are generally considered as herbivores. While they do bite to defend and attack, biting is not the same as eating.

Hippos are herbivores, meaning they primarily feed on plants like grasses and fruits. Their diet consists mainly of vegetation, although they have been known to scavenge on occasion.

They are both herbivores and carnivores, which would also be known as being an omnivore because they are both.
