We quantified florivory and subsequent fruit set in the presence and absence of giraffes. Below the elephants is a giraffe with a typically exaggerated neck. Therefore, giraffes, human communities and domestic cattle move at the same time according to environmental constraints. Given that giraffes were leaf-eaters and given that there was variation in neck length, we could predict selection for longer necks. The overlap was lowest when giraffe was paired with impala.
