Landscape and Plant Nutrition Associations of Forest Bison in the Lena Pillars National Park

Research reveals that the landscape and plant nutrition of forest bison in Lena Pillars National Park play a crucial role in shaping their behavior and distribution. The study found significant associations between bison grazing patterns and the nutritional quality of plants, particularly in areas with diverse vegetation. By analyzing soil properties, plant species composition, and bison diet through stable isotope analysis and field observations, scientists identified key factors influencing bison foraging strategies. These findings highlight the importance of maintaining ecological diversity to support healthy bison populations in protected areas like Lena Pillars Nature Park.
