- Interaction of Plant Species Diversity on Grazing Behavior and Performance of Livestock Grazing Temperate Region Pastures (2007, background): “Animal selectivity is greater when preferred patches are aggregated as opposed to randomly dispersed across the landscape (Dumont et al., 2002).”
- Factors and processes affecting plant biodiversity in permanent grasslands. A review (2011, unknown): “Selective grazing between different plant communities and species has been shown for cattle (Pratt et al. 1986), horses (Ménard et al. 2002), and sheep (Dumont et al. 2002).”
- Impacts of spatial patterns in pasture on animal grazing behavior, intake, and performance (2007, background): “Again, there is empirical evidence to support these predictions (Dumont et al., 2002).”
