Niche of Assigned Organism The Elk  Cervus Elaphus ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Food Chain of the Elk The Aspen forest (producer; autotroph) is consumed by the Elk (primary consumer; herbivore), which is then eating by it’s predator, the mountain lion (secondary consumer; carnivore). Finally, the mountain lion is consumed by the tertiary consumer, the human.  Producer Autotroph Primary Consumer Herbivore Secondary Consumer Carnivore Tertiary Consumer Omnivore
Food Web of Assigned Organism Draw and explain a possible food web for your researched animal.  Include a description of the trophic level(s) in which each organism is found. Herbivore Producer Omnivore Carnivore Carnivore Producer Producer Carnivore Herbivore Herbivore Omnivore
