| Sep 7, 2016 at 15:48 | comment | added | RegDwigнt | Plankton is not a vegetable or shroom, so whales are apex predators alright. Poisonous animals and plants are a fair point I guess, but you can go ahead and call them just apex consumers or apex species or what have you. When the word predator does not apply, you don't have to use it. | |
