a primary consumer is an animal (herbivore) which eats a producer. In this case a producer is a plant. It is called a producer becausse it is self sustaining so it does not need to eat other living things to survive. This producer (the plant) is eaten by a primary consumer ,which could be a rabbit, or a deer ect.
