Abstract
► In African savannas, livestock corrals develop into long-term nutrient-rich glades. ► I examined long-term plant community development and herbivore effects in glades. ► I found that glades host specialized plant communities and attract wildlife. ► Wildlife appear to help maintain glade vegetation in an early-successional state.
