is a squirrel apex
only plants are producers any other living organism is a consumer
I just saw a bald eagle eat a grey squirrel today
Depending on what it eats it can be either. If an eagle eats a rat that ate a crop then it is a secondary consumer. If an eagle eats a cat that ate a rat that ate a crop it's a tertiary consumer. The higher up you get in the chain, the lower energy yield you get from the food, as 90% is lost as heat and only 10% is passed on for every level. i.e. 100% crop -> 10% rat -> 1% cat -> 0.1% eagle. the eagle only receives 0.1% of the energy. DDT and other poisonous chemicals accumulate as you go higher up the chain also.
The squirrel birthrate will decrease. (Apex)

it is a consumer
They are secondary consumers. It is sure that larger animals will eat them like sharks and seals.
A scavenger. Decomposers break down dead bodies into to minerals to be returned to the ground.
how does the bald eagle fits its foo chain
The Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary consumers are listed on the food chain pyramid. The American Bald Eagle is an example of a Tertiary consumer. The Tertiary level in the highest level on the food chain. Corn is an example of a plant.
A consumer means any living thing that has to eat another living tHing because It can't produce it's own food. Example, here is a food chain: Lettuce(producer)-is food for- slug(consumer)- is food for- sparrow(consumer)- is food for- eagle(consumer)
