Monitoring of succession in dust bath places

In recent days, we have visited the former military training area Milovice again where herds of European bisons, Exmoor ponies, and aurochs currently graze. This time we sampled the vegetation of so-called dust bath places created due to comfort behaviour of animals. The turf is disturbed and the space for colonization by new plant species is opened. Moreover, just imagine how many new seeds will fall out of a cute cub during dust-bathing games.... a lot!
