Cheetahs occupy multiple trophic levels primarily due to their role as predators and their interactions within the ecosystem. As carnivores, they primarily prey on herbivores, placing them at a higher trophic level, but they also compete with other predators and scavenge when necessary, which links them to lower trophic levels. This flexibility allows them to adapt to varying food availability and environmental conditions, enhancing their survival and reproductive success.
