I guess maybe the species that are exclusively herbivorous. Obviously Bambi and horses and a lot of other ungulates don't qualify. But how about the humble flat periwinkle? They spend their whole lives just vibing on seaweed, which is the only thing they have the equipment to eat. They literally just wander around licking seaweed, while being bright yellow.

They are remarkably inspiring for such tiny little critters.
