Can diverse herbivore communities increase landscape heterogeneity? Comparing wild and domestic herbivore assemblages in a South African savanna
Baumgartner, Sabine A.; Treydte, Anna C.; Grant, Catharina C.; Rooyen, Jacques van (Elsevier, 2015-02)The structure and composition of woody and grassy vegetation in savannas is strongly influenced by herbivores. In recent decades, the proportion of browsers has declined across African savannas in favour of more grazers, ... -
Herbaceous Forage and Selection Patterns by Ungulates across Varying Herbivore Assemblages in a South African Savanna
Treydte, Anna C.; Baumgartner, Sabine A.; Heitkönig, Ignas M. A.; Grant, Catharina C.; Getz, Wayne M. (PLOS ONE, 2013-12-16)Herbivores generally have strong structural and compositional effects on vegetation, which in turn determines the plant forage species available. We investigated how selected large mammalian herbivore assemblages use and ...
