                                In 1927, the British zoologist and ecologist Charles Elton introduced the concept of the ecological pyramid, forming a cornerstone of modern animal ecology. This visual model illustrates the feeding relationships and energy transfer within an ecosystem, laying the groundwork for a more quantitative understanding of trophic dynamics.
