A second-order consumer, also known as a secondary consumer, refers to an organism that primarily feeds on primary consumers (herbivores). In a food chain, they occupy the third trophic level, following primary producers (plants) and primary consumers. Examples of second-order consumers include carnivores and omnivores that eat herbivores. Their role is crucial in maintaining ecological balance by regulating primary consumer populations.
