The animals which eat only plants are called Herbivores. All herbivores are primary consumers.

Example: Goat

The small carnivores which feed on herbivores (primary consumers) are called secondary consumers.

Example: Frog

The Large carnivores (or top carnivores) which feed upon the small carnivores (secondary consumers) are called tertiary consumers.

Example: Lion
