In ecological terms, consumers that are captured and eaten by another consumer are referred to as prey. For example, small herbivores like rabbits and deer are consumed by carnivores such as foxes and wolves. This predator-prey relationship is essential for maintaining balance in ecosystems, as it regulates populations and promotes biodiversity. Overall, these interactions illustrate the interconnectedness of food chains and energy flow within ecosystems.
