Secondary consumer
Explanation:
Let's say a mouse eats some grass (primary consumer eats producer) then the snake eats the mouse (secondary consumer eats primary consumer). Snakes may also be considered tertiary consumers IF the animal they eat has also eaten another animal. (Grass -> grasshopper -> mouse -> snake)
