In which situation will grazing be considered an anti conservation pressure?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: When overgrazing prevents the regeneration of new vegetation
In overgrazing, animals consume grasses and young plants faster than they can regrow. This stops vegetation regeneration, may expose the soil, and can increase erosion; therefore, it is an anti-conservation pressure. Controlled, limited, and community-monitored grazing can support conservation instead. Exam tip: words such as “excessive” and “prevents regeneration” usually indicate environmental pressure.
