Answer:

The scavengers of Earth also called the carrion-feeder are animals which feed on decaying biomass or dead organic matter like the meat of a dead animal or plant matter that is rotting.

Explanation:

• Scavengers belong to the “third trophic level” of the food web and are secondary consumers.
• Ecologically, scavengers play a vital role in the food web because they are the garbage eliminators who clear the dead and rotten remains of organisms.
• Scavenger animals have special adaptations like strong piercing claws, sharp teeth, heavy jaws, sharp talons, beak etc.
• Animals like hyena, lion, wolf, vultures, eagle, carrion beetle, blowflies etc are scavengers.
