Giraffe, kudu and impala mainly browsed the same species and plant parts but browsed at different heights.
It would therefore not be appropriate to manipulate the elephant population on the basis that it competes for food with impala, kudu and giraffe.
The estimated impala locations were superimposed on the classified images.
Multiple comparisons showed that mean browsing heights by elephant and impala were not different.
For example, information on the effect of impalas on recruitment and release is apparently critical.
The overlap was lowest when giraffe was paired with impala.
Elephants may suffer from competition for grasses with herbivores like buffalo or impala, which are superior competitors.
Similarly, habitat use was assessed for both seasons by allocating vegetation classes to bimonthly impala observations.
