clearly a wombat is a consumer. it consumes things (eats) to live. pretty self explanatory. producers are plans and algea and some bacteria, which are able to take inorganic materials, such as co2 and h20 and light energy and convert that into chemical energy. in other words, a plant traps sunlight in its leaves and uses that light energy to make glucose, a sugar that provides energy for it. thats called photosynthesis. A consumer is not able to make its own energy like i just described but can reorganise it. so they eat an organism, plannt or animal that already has the glucose in them and use that and break it down for energy use. just for future reference, anything that eats is a consumer.

Wombats are prey rather than predators. They are herbivores, feeding only on grasses, leaves, sedges and other vegetation, so they do not feed on any other animals.

Wombats have very few natural predators, but they can be prey to carnivorous mammals such as dingoes and, in Tasmania, to the Tasmanian devil.

Being a herbivore, the only thing a wombat preys on is vegetation, so it would be considered prey, rather than predator.

Yes. Wombats are consumers. More specifically, they are secondary consumers, meaning they feed on plants and vegetation.
