Animals that depend solely on animal flesh for their nutrient requirements are called hypercarnivores or obligate carnivores, whilst those which also consume non-animal food are called mesocarnivores, or facultative carnivores, or omnivores (there are no clear distinctions).[2] A carnivore at the top of the food chain (adults not preyed upon by other animals) is termed an apex predator, regardless of whether it is an obligate or facultative carnivore.
