Are animals born with the bacteria in their mouths and gut? If not where do they come from?

yes, bacteria is everywhere, it is one of the most sucessful organisms in the universe, popuating everywhere. bacteria lives inside the mother, and in the womb so it is passed to offspring

No.  Only femals cows exist.  No one knows where they come from since a community of all females, even if they resort to bovine lesbianism, still can't produce young.  It's a mystery all right...

its the methane producing bacteria in their digestive tract.\nthey break down the oganic nutrients from the cows food, and produce methane as a waste product

Farts are primarily caused by bacteria that reside in your lower gut. They eat undigested foods that pass into the lower gut and as a byproduct of that, methane is produced. Beans, notorious for causing farts, contain large amounts of oligosaccharides, sugars that humans cannot digest, and bacteria digest these, causing gas.

Which Bacteria are Responsible for Food-borne Illness?\nSome bacteria cause more serious illness than others, but only a few are responsible for the majority of cases. Below is information regarding nine prominent bacteria.\n\nCampylobacter jejuni \nFound: intestinal tracts of animals and birds, raw milk, untreated water, and sewage sludge.\n\nTransmission: contaminated water, raw milk, and raw or under-cooked meat, poultry, or shellfish.\n\nSymptoms: fever, headache, and muscle pain followed by diarrhea (sometimes bloody), abdominal pain and nausea that appear 2 to 5 days after eating; may last 7 to 10 days.\n\nClostridium botulinum \nFound: widely distributed in nature: in soil and water, on plants, and in intestinal tracts of animals and fish. Grows only in little or no oxygen.\n\nTransmission: bacteria produce a toxin that causes illness. Improperly canned foods, garlic in oil, and vacuum-packaged and tightly wrapped food.\n\nSymptoms: toxin affects the nervous system. Symptoms usually appear within 18 to 36 hours, but can sometimes appear within as few as 4 hours or as many as 8 days after eating; double vision, droopy eyelids, trouble speaking and swallowing, and difficulty breathing. Fatal in 3 to 10 days if not treated. \n\nClostridium perfringens \nFound: soil, dust, sewage, and intestinal tracts of animals and humans. Grows only in little or no oxygen.\n\nTransmission: called “the cafeteria germ” because many outbreaks result from food left for long periods in steam tables or at room temperature. Bacteria destroyed by cooking, but some toxin-producing spores may survive.\n\nSymptoms: diarrhea and gas pains may appear 8 to 24 hours after eating; usually last about 1 day, but less severe symptoms may persist for 1 to 2 weeks. \n\nEscherichia coli O157:H7\nFound: intestinal tracts of some mammals, raw milk, unchlorinated water; one of several strains of E. coli that can cause human illness. \n\nTransmission: contaminated water, raw milk, raw or rare ground beef, unpasteurized apple juice or cider, uncooked fruits and vegetables; person-to-person. \n\nSymptoms: diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea, and malaise; can begin 2 to 5 days after food is eaten, lasting about 8 days. Some, especially the very young, have developed Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS) that causes acute kidney failure. A similar illness, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), may occur in older adults. \n\nSalmonella (over 1600 types) \nFound: intestinal tract and feces of animals; Salmonella enteritidis in raw eggs.\n\nTransmission: raw or undercooked eggs, poultry, and meat; raw milk and dairy products; seafood. \n\nSymptoms: stomach pain, diarrhea, nausea, chills, fever, and headache usually appear 6 to 48 hours after eating; may last 1 to 2 days. \n\nStreptococcus A \nFound: noses, throats, pus, sputum, blood, and stools of humans. \n\nTransmission: people-to-food from poor hygiene, ill food handlers, or improper food handling; outbreaks from raw milk, ice cream, eggs, lobster, salads, custard, and pudding allowed to stand at room temperature for several hours between preparation and eating.\n\nSymptoms: sore throat, painful swallowing, tonsillitis, high fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, malaise; occurs 1 to 3 days after eating, lasting a few days to about a week. \n\nListeria monocytogenes \nFound: intestinal tracts of humans and animals, milk, soil, leaf vegetables, and processed foods; can grow slowly at refrigerator temperatures. \n\nTransmission: soft cheese, raw milk, improperly processed ice cream, raw leafy vegetables, meat, and poultry. Illness caused by bacteria that do not produce toxin. \n\nSymptoms: fever, chills, headache, backache, sometimes abdominal pain and diarrhea; 12 hours to 3 weeks after ingestion; may later develop more serious illness (meningitis or spontaneous abortion in pregnant women); sometimes just fatigue. \n\nShigella (over 30 types) \nFound: human intestinal tract; rarely found in other ani

I know this is really gross but... are there any animals?\n\nlol lol just wondering (to save the human race)

Young elephants eat the feces of their mother to obtain the necessary bacteria for the proper digestion of the vegetation found on the savannah. When they are born, their intestines do not contain these bacteria. Without them, these elephants would be unable to get any nutritional value from plants

the above answer is wrong.  neither one has anything to do with making your own food.  in fact I wonder if you have your terms backwards.  prokaryotes are bacteria, eukaryotes are everything else.

True, in fact observations that the offspring from parents of different species (where offspring are possible) are sterile was one of the key lines of evidence that lead Darwin to evolution by natural selection. ie. that once two populations of the same species become different enough, they can't interbreed thus stay separate.  \n\nIt is now established though, through many observations, that bacteria have and do pick up chunks of DNA from unrelated species of bacteria. A lot of their DNA is very mobile. I guess it depends on what you call 'kind'.

lactobacillus bacteria are found in youghort this bacteria is responsible for the spoilage of milk,they ferment glucose into lactose try these sites for images:\n\nbioweb.usu.edu/ microscopy/Research.htm\nwww.suite101.com/article. cfm/microbiology/2655

Cows give bacteria an appropriate microenvironment to develop and grow, well protected from the harsh conditions of the outside environment. The bacteria also get enough food to live. \nIn return, bacteria process the cellulose present in plants (which mammals can´t digest) into simpler sugars that can be absorbed and utilized by the cow as an energetic source.

Hmmm...looks like the site given by the person above me confirms that they did. There are other species of canines, but all *dogs* evolved from wolves.

You are quite right, similar contraditiction comes up when you compare monkeys with fish, and fish, fish with worms and worms with bacteria.\n\nBetter yet, compare a St.Bernard with  a Toy Terrier - one is 10 times larger than another, no way they could have evolved from a common ancestor.

Bacteria do not reproduce sexually in the way that animals do, so there are no "male" and "female" designations.  The closest you would get is F+ and F-, where the fertility plasmid is present or not.  But back to your question, the flagella is in a similar location in all of a species of bacteria.

people are made from bacteria..\nactually,a human being is a big bacteri..\nwhen a single celled bacteria was formed with another celled bacteria ithey will form a multi celled bacteria..\nwith these process,a human being is created..\nactually,a brain is made up of multi cellular bacteria..\n\nthere is also another theory that explains that we came from monkeys..\nanother one tells about adam and eve.. \nfrom the bible,it states there that god created men from his replica..\nI guess all of it are actually correct..\n\nwell,you just need to choose an answer..\nnobody really knows the truth..

Methane produced by bacteria that live in your digestive tract.Its a pretty smelly gas...ever seen Rocket Man?

From rabbits. Rabbits (hares) have "hare-lips"  A split in their front lip.  Jeez.  ...... Yes he does oghma !!  look again!
