Is a raccoon primary secondary or tertiary consumer?

A raccoon is considered an omnivore, which means it eats both plants and animals. This makes it difficult to classify them as a single trophic level.

Here's why:

* Primary consumers eat only plants (herbivores). Raccoons eat plants, so they fit this description.

* Secondary consumers eat primary consumers (carnivores). Raccoons eat insects, small mammals, and amphibians, making them secondary consumers too.

* Tertiary consumers eat secondary consumers (top predators). Raccoons can be prey to larger animals, but they also prey on other animals, so they fit this description as well.

Therefore, a raccoon can be considered a combination of primary, secondary, and tertiary consumer depending on their specific diet and the ecosystem they live in.
