trees. The removal of trees also assists grazing management. For example in sheep grazing
regions of dense tree and shrub cover harbours predators, leading to increased stock losses
while woody plant cover hinders mustering in both sheep and cattle areas.

pastoralists used felling and
ringbarking, the removal of a ring
