Abstract Bush encroachment is reported from savanna regions worldwide. Different management strategies are used to rehabilitate these areas. In this context, the mutual interaction between vegetation and large herbivore’s distribution is evident. We studied effects of land management on vegetation structure in regard to encroaching species and the subsequent habitat use of two grazing (oryx, Oryx gazella L.; common warthog, Phacochoerus africanus Gmelin) and one browsing (greater kudu, Tragelaphus strepsiceros Pallas) ?
