When the larger animals die, their bodies rot, and they become food for insects again.Aguilar-Miranda ED, Lopez MG, Escamilla-Santana C, De La Rosa BAP (2002) Characteristics of maize flour tortilla supplemented with ground Tenebrio molitor larvae. Owls and woodpeckers feed on the centipede, crickets and scorpions. The carnivorous centipedes, spiders and scorpions prey on these smaller insects. Insects eat the bark and break down the tree.
They decompose and convert it to humus, which nourishes the soil, the forest, and the ecosystem as a whole. In part, these small insects help break down the rotting log and speed up its decomposition. Wood-boring beetles attack and chew on dying trees. Wood colonists, such as termites and ants, eat through the dead wood. Its softening trunk and loosening bark shelters and provides nourishment to the animals as well. The rotting log is considered a habitat of its own, as it is home to small and large animals alike. Under the dying and lifeless log is a wealth of bugs, snails, slugs, earthworms and bug larvae. There is typically little evidence of life within a rotting log unless it is flipped over.
