Consumer heterotroph 1. herbivore
2. carnivore
3. Omnivore omnes "all" or "everything"
4. Detritivore->An organism that feeds on detritus; a saprophage
Scavenger-> An animal that feeds on decaying matter such as carrion.

Through their feces, bears also distribute tens of thousands of seeds from huckleberries, chokecherries, currants, mountain ash and pine nuts. And grizzlies that scavenge carcasses and those that learn to fish for trout or salmon spread around natural fertilizers.
