The response of bird feeding guilds to forest fragmentation reveals conservation strategies for a critically endangered African eco‐region

2017-03-01

Abstract excerpt

South African coastal forests form part of two critically endangered eco‐regions and harbor an extinction debt. Remaining fragments are small, isolated, and embedded within a range of human land‐use types. In this study, we ask: how should we invest conservation resources if we want to restore this landscape and prevent predicted extinctions? To answer this question, we use path analyses to determine the direct an...
