this rather intrigues me

They do this through a combination of evenly grazing grasslands, recycling nutrients which fertilise the soil, dispersing seeds and compacting the soil to prevent carbon from being released.

compacting the soil is one of the explicit reasons given, iirc, for why it's so important to remove hoofed fauna from our snowy mtns region etc. also, though i'm even more vague on this, i thought damage from hooves was one of the arguments against deer in straya

tis a tad confusing, these apparent hemispherical contradictions
