           The third tropic level of grazing food chain contain secondary consumers that feed on primary consumers. Here snake eats grasshopper,as a result snake act as secondary consumers or primary carnivores.

         The highest tropic level of grazing food chain contain tertiary consumers  or secondary carnivores.Hawk eats snake,as a result hawk act as Tertiary consumers or secondary carnivores.
