Fatty acid analyses provide novel insights on hippo defecation and consequences for aquatic food webs
By defecating grasses into aquatic systems at massive scales and intensities, hippos can initiate complex changes to aquatic ecosystems. However, consequent effects on food webs are not well understood, particularly regarding shifts in basal resource contributions to consumer diets and their physiol...
