“…Clark et al [23] reported that grazing by domestic sheep during late spring increased protein content of blue bunch wheatgrass (Agropyron spicatum) and improved winter forage for elk. Casasús et al [3] also showed that moderate cattle grazing elevated protein content of forage. However, the increase in vegetation quality and nitrogen content was temporary and was lost during winter due to vegetation senescence [24].…”

“…The introduction of cattle can have a major influence on grassland communities affecting both producers and consumers [1][2][3], yet little is known to fully evaluate the extent of these impacts. Competition between ungulates and domestic cattle remains an important concern [4].…”

“…Grazing is often considered to be a factor which contributes to vegetation stability. Moreover, it is regarded as a conservation method to protect a unique ecosystem, especially in regions, e.g., the Pyrenees, where animal grazing is a long-time tradition (Casasús et al, 2007;Sebastiá et al, 2008).…”
