Understanding the role of fragmentation in informing small mammal diversity and abundance in Rûens Renosterveld
… alone. The second part of the study investigates dietary information of small mammal species in the region through the analysis of stable isotope ratios of carbon ( 13C/12C) and nitrogen ( 14N/15N) in faecal samples. The results are used to compare dietary differences between and within these …
