Grazing animals enjoy an ambiguous reputation in the field of
nature conservation. Livestock are often treated as a scourge, yet
native large herbivores form the prime attraction of many a
reserve. This book gives the first comprehensive overview of the
use of grazing as a tool in conservation management. Considering in
turn the ecological and historical background, the impact of
grazing on community structure, management applications and future
prospects, this book examines issues such as the role of herbivores
as keystone species, the assessment of habitat quality and the
function of scientific models in advancing grazing management.
Large herbivores are shown to be potentially powerful allies in the
management of nature reserves, particularly in the maintenance,
enhancement or restoration of biodiversity. Grazing and
Conservation Management will appeal to conservation biologists and
rangeland managers, providing them with a clearer understanding of
grazing and conservation management.
