Tothis extent, they are the ecological counterparts of the great herds of ungulates in- habiting the savannahs of tropical Africa (and the monsoonal plains of Asia in their pristine state). Both groups comprise the chief primary consumers of living vegetable tissue in their respective environments. Members of each show appropriate anatomical adapt- ations for such a diet. As efficient exploiters of a dispersed but generally abundant food source, each group collectively forms the main vertebrate component of animal biernass in the environment. Yet, despite superficial convergence, there are important differences in the biology and behaviour of members of these two groups of herbivores. Of greatest practical moment to the enquiring biologist are the ready visibility of most plains-dwelling ungulates, the ease with which the researcher can travel over (or above) their habitat by motor transport (or light aircraft) and the facility for near approach without causing disturbance that a closed vehicle has proved to off | | 出版日期 | Book 1980 | | 關(guān)鍵詞 | Savanna; behavior; biology; climate; environment; food; forest; iron; mammals; primates; tissue; transport | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4757-0878-3 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4757-0880-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4757-0878-3 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1980 |
