  1. 1. African elephants' effect on the temporal use of elephant highway by predator and prey. Makgadikgadi Pans National Park.

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Rebecka Relfsson; [2023-08-18]
    Keywords : African savanna elephant; elephant highways; interspecies interactions; predation avoidance; predator-prey interaction; temporal activity;

    Abstract : African savanna elephants (Loxondonta africana) are the world’s largest land-mammal and are considered a keystone species. The effect they have on vegetation and their environment is well known, but their effect on other animal species is less studied. READ MORE

  2. 2. Investigating the use of olfactory cues to re-direct African savannah elephant pathways. A potential conflict mitigation tool.

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap
