MAMMALS OF THE FREEMAN RANCH, HAYS COUNTY, TEXAS

During Recent time, disturbance has become a major factor in the ecology of grasslands of North America. The grazing guild (herbivory) composed of domestic livestock: cattle, sheep, goats, and horses are important grazers of grasslands because of their size and abundance
