* Primary Consumers: These are herbivores that eat plants (like zebras, wildebeest, or gazelles).
* Secondary Consumers: These are carnivores (or omnivores) that eat primary consumers (like hyenas, lions, leopards).
* Tertiary Consumers: These are carnivores that eat other carnivores (like lions eating hyenas).
Hyenas primarily feed on the carcasses of animals that have been killed by other predators (like lions) or that have died naturally. They are also known to hunt smaller animals.
