Oh No, FIRE!
Are there any other plants than grass?
Herbs and flowers grow quite abundantly, but trees don't grow in the grasslands very much because of the soil being very dry. If trees do grow, they are likely to not last long because of the eratic climates causeing forest fires and droughts.
Bald Eagle
The Bald Eagle is a secondary consumer because it eats the field mouse, who eats the grass. It doesn't just eat field mice though. It may also consume any other roaming rodent such as the prairie dog. It is not eaten by anyone, but it is decomposed by the fungi and returned through the cycle. They can get cooler by going to the shade under leaves in trees.
Prarie Dog
The prairie dog is a primary consumer because it directly eats the grass, who makes its own energy directly from the sun. It is eaten by snakes and birds of prey that roam the skies searching for cute little bites like him. Similar to the badger, prairie dogs cool down by going into their burrows.
Coyote
The coyote is a secondary consumer. He eats the rabbits and field mice who are both primary consumers, but to actually eat the animals, they have to compete with the other coyotes to get a good piece of meat. . Just like the birds of prey, he is only consumed by the decomposers after it dies. When coyotes are overwhelmed by the hot sun, they will go their well or place they get water and have a bath.
