In a cave ecosystem, the food chain typically starts with primary producers like algae and fungi. These are then consumed by primary consumers such as insects and crustaceans. Secondary consumers like bats, Spiders, and salamanders feed on the primary consumers, and higher-level predators like owls and snakes may prey on them. Decay organisms break down waste and dead organisms to recycle nutrients back into the ecosystem.
