| style="height:20px; width:600px; text-align:center;" |In this '''food chain''' the grass is the first [[Trophic Level|trophic level]] (a [[producer]]). The grasshopper, pied flycatcher, skunk and vulture are all [[consumer]]s. The vulture is also the last [[Trophic Level|trophic level]] and a [[Top Carnivore|top carnivore]]. It is not an [[Apex Predator|apex predator]] because it does not hunt for [[prey]], it is a [[scavenger]].
