Consumers. Consumers are animals that eat food. But plants aren’t considered consumers because they ABSORD energy from the sun. So that means: herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores. A example of a consumer is a lion. Lions eat: rabbits, coyote, etc. Another example is a Black-Tailed Jack rabbit. The Jack rabbit eats plants. A omnivore is us. Humans we eat meat and vegtables. Well that’s all for now but you can learn more about consumers online.
