摘要: Savanna ecosystems cover a substantial percentage of Earth’s land surface area and are economically socially important (Scholes Archer 1997; Sankaran et al. 2005; Bond 2008). In addition to harbouring considerable biodiversity, savannas used extensively by humans, primarily as grazing lands for cattle Vetter 2005). A growing the world’s population depends on their livelihood, human populations grow, increasing pressure could lead degradation (Vetter
