Primary Consumers are consumers that are one level up from producers in the food chain. They will always eat grasses and such, so they will be herbivores.
Primary consumers found in a wetland could be deer, ducks or waterfowl (that is NOT a bird-of-prey) or minnow-like fish (only if they eat producers, not other fish).
