Why is the term "food web" more appropriate than "food chain" in referring to the energy relationships among the species of a community?

Food web is more appropriate because of how wide spread the animal kingdom is, there are many predators for many different animals. For example, if a rabbit is killed by a wolf and the wolf eats a part of the carcass and leaves it, soon other scavengers will come and eat the remains, which then spans out into a web of animals, which allows us more data than what a chain may give us to visualize.
