Due to resource partitioning, zebra relative density changes over time and grass height.

<h3>What is resource partitioning?</h3>
  • Resource partitioning is the process by which due to natural selection, competing species use different resources and niches.
  • In the case of African savanna, right after peak rain all the three grazers (zebra, wildebeest, and Thomson’s gazelle) have high density.
  • After rain in one month relative density of zebras is maximum but it becomes nearly zero after three months due to high density of wildebeest and then increases a little after six months.
  • The density of zebras is greatest when the grass is tallest and most abundant because of resource partitioning as zebras get the most out of eating tall grass.
  • Zebras can eat and digest faster taller grasses with many stems.
  • This gives them an advantage over other grazers in terms of nutrition when the grass is tall.
