Ranking temperate woody species along a gradient of browsing by deer. (2009, background): “, 2003), one of the key questions is to assess what the preferred species actually are (Strole and Anderson, 1992; Forsyth et al., 2002).”
Impacts of introduced deer and extinct moa on New Zealand ecosystems (2010, background): “Although deer will eat conifers, they have not been preferred in any of the New Zealand diet selection studies (Forsyth et al. 2002, 2005).”
Legacy of avian-dominated plant-herbivore systems in New Zealand (2010, unknown): “…primarily from gizzard remains and coprolites, indicates that very few of the plant taxa consumed by moa are also preferred by ungulates (Wood et al. 2008) (Table 2); the majority of species eaten by moa were neither selected, nor avoided, according to the classification of Forsyth et al. (2002).”
