Ecosystem engineering by digging mammals: effects on soil fertility and condition in Tasmanian temperate woodland
Many small- and medium-sized mammals dig for their food. This activity potentially affects soil condition and fertility. Digging is well developed especially in Australian mammals, many of which have recently become rare or extinct. We measured the effects of digging by mammals on soil in a Tasmania...
