Low-density, selective grazers with restricted habitat requirements may be particularly vulnerable to extinction under hotter, drier conditions expected across Africa’s drylands with climate change. We evaluated how spatiotemporal variation in vegetation greenness and environmental heat load influenced movements of sable antelope, a water-dependent African grazer with selective resource requirements. We recorded hourly Global...

Understanding how human activity can influence species distributions and spatial niche partitioning between sympatric species is a key area of contemporary ecology. Extirpations of large mammalian populations, the result of a 15-year civil war, within the Gorongosa National Park in Mozambique, have been followed by an extended period of restoration. The species-specific recovery of these populations has provided an ideal syste...
