Shared resources between giant panda and sympatric wild and domestic mammals (2015, background): “In xeric ecosystems of North America, 11 of 16 analyses revealed significant detrimental effects of cattle grazing on wildlife communities (Jones, 2000).”
Effects of livestock grazing on aboveground insect communities in semi-arid grasslands of southeastern Arizona (2006, background): “In response to this interest, numerous studies have examined the effects of livestock grazing on grassland plants, [207] birds, reptiles, and mammals (see Fleischner 1994; Jones 2000 for reviews).”
Small mammal responses to environmental change: integrating past and present dynamics (2014, background): “Grazing by domestic livestock in desert and montane habitats also has been shown to have negative impacts on small mammal communities, triggering decreases in species richness and community abundance (Jones 2000).”
Do grazing intensity and herbivore type affect soil health? Insights from a semi‐arid productivity gradient (2017, background): “Although the effects of livestock on soil health have been widely studied (e.g. Fleischner 1994; Jones 2000; Golluscio et al. 2009; Eldridge, Greene & Dean 2011), relatively little is known about how grazing by kangaroos or rabbits, the predominant free-ranging herbivores in eastern Australia,…”
