Jackals are considered secondary consumers because they primarily feed on primary consumers, such as herbivores, as well as scavenging on carrion. They occupy a trophic level above primary consumers (like rabbits or antelopes) and below tertiary consumers (like lions or hyenas) in the food chain. This role allows them to help regulate herbivore populations and maintain ecological balance.
