A myth its that first rodents were herbivores, first rodents were omnivores, as seen by their Bunodont brachydont molars and mainly arboreal locomotion (arboreal animals are mainly omnivorous) even there are some omnivorous rodents like dormice, majority of squirrels and like 80% of muroids, only 2 sub orders have 100% herbivorous rodents, 99% of caviomorphs are herbivores, majority of scuirids are omnivores and also muroids
