• Human perturbations reduce dung beetle diversity and dung removal ecosystem function (2021, background): “In addition, dung beetles are good bioindicators of anthropogenic disturbances due to their close relationship with both vegetation cover and mammal richness and abundance (Davis et al., 2001; McGeoch et al., 2002; Nichols & Gardner, 2011; Nichols et al., 2009; Otavo et al., 2013).”
