☜☆☞ The hierarchical pyramid of energy flow in any ecosystem goes like this:
Sun -> Primary Producers -> Primary Consumers -> Secondary Consumers -> Tertiary Consumers
Primary consumers, which is more or less synonymous with "herbivores," eat the things that turn sunlight into energy. Secondary consumers are carnivores who eat the primary consumers. Tertiary consumers are at the top, eating all the secondary consumers and primary consumers that they can.
A rabbit would be an example of a primary consumer. The fox that eats the rabbit is an example of a secondary consumer. Wolves are tertiary consumers, because they come along and eat everybody involved, and because nobody eats them.
