Maintenance of the productivity of the world’s grasslands is critical for livestock production, bio- diversity conservation and ecosystem services. Using case studies from Australasia, North America and China, we identify general principles of managing invasive native and introduced herbivores. Management aims to achieve optimised livestock production while conserving biodiversity and ecosystem services, which are often intangible. We identify similarities and differences in the ecologies and impacts of European wild rabbits, Californian ground squirrel and plateau zokors, discuss management tools and strategies, and the eco- logical, social and cultural factors affecting management. The ecosystem engineering characteristics of these species that make them important for ecosystem function in grasslands are perversely the selfsame ones that bring them into conflict with livestock producers. All three species create habitat patches through their bur- rowing and foraging behaviours, but changes in vegetation floristics and structure, increased soil exposure and decreased litter negatively affect grassland and livestock production when the animals are superabundant.

    MAMMALS, BIRDS, AMPHIBIANS and REPTILES seen on the Roof of the World and in Sichuan Oct 3 – Oct 27 2016 Stefan Lithner Wild yak This trip was arranged by Greentours Natural History Holidays http://www.greentours.co.uk/ and was conducted by Jesper Hornskov Beijing China (JH), Roland Ziedler Germany (RZ) and Phil Benstead Grevie Sweden (PB). Participants were: Michel Lejard Tours France (ML) , Eric McCabe Perth (EM), Lesley McCabe Perth (LM), Francis Jouanne Le Havre France (FJ), Anita Ericson Bor Sweden (AE), Ian Silvester Berkshire(JS), Virginia Silvester Berkshire (VS), Stefan Lithner Karlshamn Sweden (SL), Jacqui Green Cambridge (JG), David Thomas Devon (DT), Maureen Thomas Devon (MT), Staffan Widstrand Järfälla Sweden (SW). Presentation: This trip focused on mammals, but a number of birds, a few reptiles, amphibians and insects were also identified. For identification of mammals we used Andrew T Smith and Yan Xie; A Guide to the Mammals of China 2008, in text referred to as; Smith et al. Some supplementary information is added from www.iucnredlist (preceeded by Nomen nescio) are referred to as (IUCN). My compilation is made primarily for my own pleasure. It includes a few retrospectively identified species. In the itinerary comments are made on findings I feel are worth mentioning. Thus not all of the species of birds are mentioned in the itinerary, but can be found in the checklists. A full day to day report written by Phil Benstead is available on: http://www.greentours.co.uk/doc/Trip%20Report%20Mammals%20of%20the%20Roof%20of%20the%20World %202016%20edited.pdf Itinerary in short: Chengdu – Xining – Hunshu-area – Koko Nor - - Wenquan – Huashixia - Bayankala Pass – Yushu – Nanqian – Baixha Forest Reserve – Kanda Shan – Qumalai – Chang Tang - Budonquan – Yeniugou - Golmud - the Qaidam and Nuomohong – Dulan – Dulan Mountains – Chaka Desert – Gulag – Xining – transfer to Sichuan, Laba He – Dujiangyan – Tangjiahe – Chengdu.
