- Abstract
The article discusses the effect of rabbits' disappearance in 1954 to the vegetation in Blakeney Point, England. It claims that apparent changes in the vegetation become apparent, five years after the disappearance of rabbits in the place. It states that the most noticeable effects observed were on grasses which have grown more densely and have flowered well. Moreover, it notes that plant species like Festuca rubra and Agropyron junceiforme also grew abundantly and flowered well from 1956 to 1957.
