In the Rocky Mountains, a primary consumer is an organism that directly feeds on primary producers, such as plants and algae. Common examples include herbivores like elk, deer, and rabbits that graze on the abundant grasses and shrubs in the region. These primary consumers play a crucial role in the ecosystem by transferring energy from plants to higher trophic levels, such as carnivores. Their population dynamics also influence vegetation patterns and overall ecosystem health.
