A prairie dog is a consumer because it feeds on other organisms. consumer=an organism that feeds on other organisms producer=makes energy for self
this is easy the prairie dog eats the alfalfa and he hawk eats the praire dog
A consumer gets its energy in multiple ways.If the consumer is low on the food chain like a prairie dog it will get its energy from producers, such as grass that use photosynthesis.If the consumer is in the middle of the food chain like a hawk it would get its energy from eating the prairie dog and also gain the leftover energy from the grass the prairie dog ate.Last but not least is if the consumer is high up in the food chain like a coyote.The coyote will get its energy from eating the hawk which in turn will give it leftover energy from the prairie dog. It could also give some energy from the grass to the coyote but that's not very likely. So basically a consumer gets its energy by what it eats. I hope this helped:)

prairie dogs are rodents. (was fixed to make easier)
No, dogs are certainly not endangered. But, a type of a dog called: Mexican Prairie Dog is on the list. Yes they are endangered.
well it depends on the type of prairie dogs i would say yes
the prairie dog ecosystem is hawks, ferrets, and other animals that hunt the prairie dog.
no
NO, they are considered producers.

A prairie dog is primarily an herbivore, feeding on grasses, plants, and seeds. They may occasionally consume insects, making them omnivorous.
