- •
Cattle and rabbits were on Enderby Island for >100 yrs until their removal in 1993.
- •
Their impact on local vegetation was accurately recorded by pollen in a peat core.
- •
Sporormiella spores were an accurate proxy for the presence of cattle/rabbits.
- •
Pollen recorded the rapid vegetation response to extermination of cattle/rabbits.
- •
Changepoint analysis could not resolve the order of extermination vs. response.
