    Elephant conservation has been so successful that within many protected areas, the elephant population has grown to numbers that may not be able to be supported in such small, fragmented landscapes. Being confined to small home ranges year-round is causing drastic changes in landscape and biodiversity. Many over-populated protected areas have experienced the conversion from dense woodland areas to sparse shrub-land or even grass-lands because of increased browsing pressure. Since elephants are selective when choosing trees and shrubs to browse, certain species are more threatened by elephant presence than others and are being carefully monitored so that they do not disappear from areas of high elephant density.
