Decomposers like fungi and bacteria break down dead organisms (plants and animals) into simpler substances.

They don’t "eat" in the traditional sense like animals do. Instead, they absorb nutrients through chemical processes.

If you're talking about animals that eat dead animals, those are called scavengers (like vultures or hyenas), not decomposers.
