Ecosystem is composed of biotic components and abiotic (non-living) components. The biotic components of forest ecosystem are primary consumers ($e.g.$, rabbit, moles, deer, squirrels, grasshoppers, etc), secondary consumers ($e.g.$, carnivorous, birds, snake, lizard, etc) and decomposers (fungi and bacteria). In tropical and subtropical forests, rate of decomposition is more rapid than temperate.
