Porcupines are considered consumers in the food chain. As herbivores, they primarily feed on plants, such as leaves, twigs, and bark. They do not play a role as decomposers, which are organisms that break down dead organic matter into simpler substances. Instead, porcupines contribute to energy flow within ecosystems by consuming producers (plants) and being a food source for other consumers in the food chain.
