A food chain includes producers, consumers, ad predators in the forms of plants, herbivores, and carnivores. Predators are at the top of a food chain. Examples of desert food chains are plants, mule deer, and mountain and shrubs or seeds, quail, and a coyote.

A food chain that might occur in a forest community would be a small herbivore (mouse) eating a plant and then being eaten by a carnivore (owl). In the ocean shrimp would eat plankton a larger fish would eat the shrimp and then the larger fish would be eaten by a shark or dolphin. The desert would be the same smaller animal eaten by something larger.

Obviously this will vary from desert to desert by a lot. A stereotypical food chain for an American desert (i.e the Sonoran) might look like this:

cacti --> burrowing owl --> sidewinder (snake) --> hawk (or other large bird of prey)
