Integrating herbivore assemblages and woody plant cover in an African savanna to reveal how herbivores respond to ecosystem management.
African savannas are experiencing anthropogenically-induced stressors that are accelerating the increase of woody vegetation cover. To combat this, land managers frequently implement large-scale clearing of trees, which can have a cascading influence on mammalian herbivores. Studies rarely focus on...
