My understanding is that they regurgitate (vomit) up the consumed food after the competition has ended. They also don't compete on a daily, or even weekly basis, for the most part.

Vomiting is expelling digested or partially digested food.

Regurgitating is expelling undigested food.

Remember cows regurgitate so that they can swallow it again for digestion.

So op got it right. It could be either depending on if some has digested or not.

Unless you're actually thinking of rumination. ;)

I wasn't attempting to correct them, I was just sharing. Rumination would be the entire process ;;;;)
