Hmm. I wonder. Consumers are split into four types, omnivores, herbivores, scavengers, and carnivores. And omnivore is an animal that eats both plants and animals. Most humans are omnivores, besides vegetarians and vegans. People eat plants such as fruit and vegetables, and also eat animals and animal products such as meat and milk.
Some animals are also omnivores. For example, bears eat both berries and fish such as salmon. A herbivore is an animal that only eats plants, algae and other producers herbivores do not eat meat. For example, deer, sheep, and goats. A scavenger is an animal that eat dead animals, for example, Folgers and coyotes.
