Evidence based review: positive versus negative effects of livestock grazing on wildlife. What do we really know? (2016, background): “In contrast, cattle use of pastures during only certain parts of the year may possibly promote facilitation. Our review found that when responses between seasons were specifically investigated, many cases (n=19) showed a negative or neutral response in one season, but a shift to a neutral or posit”
The movement of African elephants in a human‐dominated land‐use mosaic (2009, background): “Unusually for a landscape without government gazetted wildlife areas, Laikipia hosts the second highest densities of wildlife in Kenya, after theMaasaiMara, including the country’s second largest population of elephants (Omondi, Bitok & Mayienda, 2002; Georgiadis et al., 2007).”
Lessons on the relationship between livestock husbandry and biodiversity from the Kenya Long-term Exclosure Experiment (KLEE) (2012, background): “In particular, livestock are blamed for the documented declines in large mammalian wildlife species in Africa (Ottichilo et al. 2000; Georgiadis et al. 2007; Ogutu et al. 2009, 2011).”
Pastoralist livelihoods and wildlife revenues in East Africa: a case for coexistence? (2012, background): “…in Kenya, predator increases associated with private conservancies and their interplay with livestock ranching are thought to have driven down wild herbivore numbers in ways that impact unevenly across numerically dominant as opposed to relatively less numerous species (Georgiadis et al. 2007).”
