Title: Impacts of black-tailed jackrabbits at peak population densities on sagebrush-steppe vegetation: Journal: Journal of Range Management; Authors: J. E. Anderson, and M. L. Shumar; Date: 1986; Summary: Anderson and Shumar examined two clusters of paired plots grazed by jackrabbits in Idaho; one in an area also grazed by pronghorn with abundant winterfat (Ceratoides lanata), the other an old burn site, grazed by sheep in spring and fall; dominated by Indian ricegrass (Oryzopsis hymenoides) and green rabbitbrush (Chrysothamnus viscidiflorus). Total vegetation cover was reduced at both sites, but there were no differences in individual species responses. This suggests that rabbit herbivory has a cumulative impact on numerous species rather than the heavy use of one.
