• Tropical foliages: effect of presentation method and species on intake by goats (2005, background): “Feedback from nutrients and toxins can enable animals to select nutritious feed and limit intake of toxic feed (Tanner et al., 1990; Provenza, 1995; Ngwa et al., 2000).”
• Behaviour of goats, sheep and cattle on natural pasture in the sub-humid zone of West Africa (2006, background): “The type of browsing showed the special ability of goats in exploiting ephemeral types of feeds such as fruits, flowers and fallen dried leaves (Ngwa et al., 2000).”
• Co-grazing of sheep and goats: Benefits and constraints (2008, background): “Ngwa et al. (2000) noted that blossoms, fruits, and pods contributed to diets of both sheep and goats and to a greater extent in the dry than wet season.”
