There was a consumer that was very unhappy with his enviornment. For him it was all about Survival, Competition, the sunlight and the food chain. He wanted so badly to be a decomposer so that he would never have to recycle yesterdays producers. Most of the plants he got energy from were beginning to go extinct or become endangered. There was simply not enough prey for him anymore. There was only one species of plant left. It can be tough for a consumer to get enough nutrients from one species of plant. Then it hit him! He will just undergo adaptation so that Abiotic or biotic the plants would never have to worry about his dependence again. He would not be a predator anymore, no more competiotion, no more hard work. He would eat what the others left behind.
