Strategic management of livestock to improve biodiversity conservation in African savannahs: a conceptual basis for wildlife-livestock coexistence (2016, background): “…are better able to select higher quality, green leaves, while avoiding low-quality stems and dead leaves on taller grasses, whereas broad-mouthed herbivores are more efficient at foraging on short, dense swards of grass (Murray & Illius 2000; Arsenault & Owen-Smith 2008; Codron et al. 2008).”
Resource partitioning by grass height among grazing ungulates does not follow body size relation (2008, methodology): “Duncan (1975) and Murray and Illius (2000) noted how topi with a narrower muzzle than wildebeest can selectively remove the green leaf component from medium-height grass swards.”
In search of forage: predicting dynamic habitats of Mongolian gazelles using satellite-based estimates of vegetation productivity (2008, background): “Journal compilation © 2007 British Ecological Society, Journal of Applied Ecology, 45, 649 –658 content, vegetation quantity and growth state with the foraging ecology of different herbivores (Murray & Brown 1993; Wilmshurst et al. 1999; Murray & Illius 2000).”
Resource partitioning along multiple niche dimensions in differently sized African savanna grazers (2011, background): “…Jarman, 1971, Jarman and Sinclair 1979); selection for plant height (Bell 1970, Jarman and Sinclair 1979, Owen-Smith 1985, Illius and Gordon 1987, Murray and Illius 2000, Arsenault and Owen-Smith 2008) and plant part (i.e. stem, leaf, sheath) or growth stage (Gwynne and Bell 1968, Bell 1970,…”
Dry season diets of sympatric ungulates in lowland Nepal: competition and facilitation in alluvial tall grasslands (2006, background): “…interactions among sympatric ungulates, such as food competition and resource partitioning, are much debated issues in theoretical ecology and practical wildlife management (White 1978; Caughley and Sinclair 1994; Putman 1996; Abrams 1998; Murray and Illius 2000; Arsenault and Owen-Smith 2002).”
