• A functional hypothesis of the threat of local extirpation of woody plant species by elephant in Africa (2007, background): “Bulls should utilise more grass longer into the dry season than cows because their larger body size, hence larger mouthfuls (Stokke and du Toit, 2000) allows a greater rate of mass intake that compensates for a lower density of cell solubles.”
