The grass gets it's energy from the sun and then the rabbit eats the grass.

Grass stores energy through photosynthesis, converting sunlight into chemical energy. When a hawk consumes a herbivore that has eaten the grass, it obtains the stored energy in the form of nutrients like proteins and carbohydrates. The hawk then metabolizes these nutrients to fuel its own energy needs.
They eat various plants through their mouth which they then digest in their stomachs.
It is a consumer. Even though we eat it, a producer is something that gets its food from the sun. Beef doesn't get its energy from the sun. It gets its energy from a producer, grass.
Consumers get energy by eating organisms. Like the grass takes in energy from the sun, the bunny eats the grass getting its energy, then the fox eats the bunny to get its energy, then the bear gets the fox.the bear dies and the plants use it as food when it decays.
Not all of the energy from the sun captured by the grass is efficiently transferred to the prairie dogs due to energy losses at each trophic level. This is known as the 10% rule, where only about 10% of the energy is passed on to the next trophic level. Energy is lost as heat during metabolism, movement, growth, and other life processes, leading to inefficiencies in energy transfer along the food chain.
