Ligilactobacillus animalis is a non-motile, homofermentative species in the Gram-positive genus Ligilactobacillus, initially isolated from the dental plaque of primates and intestinal samples of a dog and mouse.[3] L. animalis has optimal growth at 37°C on MRS agar, making this species mesophilic.[2] The first reported isolates could ferment cellobiose, fructose, glucose, lactose, maltose, melibiose, raffinose, and salicin, but not xylose.[3] The genome size of the type strain is 1.89 Mbp and the G/C content is 41.1%.[1]
