Why are snakes lizards and grasshoppers called consumers?
Snakes, lizards, and grasshoppers are consumers in that they
consume, or eat, other living things for sustenance, as compared
with "producers" like trees, that make their own food.
What kind of reptiles can you eat in the desert?
Reptiles of any sort can be eaten. Snakes have a lot of bones so
be careful. Turtles and tortoises are good. If you choose to eat
insects like grasshoppers cook them or you may get tapeworms.
