Answer:

A Caterpillar is a primary consumer!

A mouse is secondary

and foxes and snakes are tertiary consumers!

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright so lets looks back

Caterpillars eat leaves and grass called "Producers"

Mouses eat the primary producers and generically make less energy

Foxes and Snakes are the ones who eat the secondary consumers, so they are called tertiary consumers.

Hope this helps!
