Destruction of vegetation when too many grazing animals feed too long and exceed the carrying capacity of a rangeland area.
Example sentences:
Overgrazing by domestic animals like sheep, goats, cows, mules, horses and yaks has been responsible for large scale degradation of the vegetative cover in many parts of the Himalayas. (Himalayas)
What constitutes overgrazing is failure to move or rotate animals in harmony with forage growth. Proper grazing management is a matter of moving animals before they have the opportunity to regraze lush regrowth. (Beef magazine)
Overgrazing by large herbivores such as red deer and sheep has been the primary cause of the lack of tree regeneration in the Caledonian Forest in the past 150-200 years. (Trees for life)

Example sentences:
Ao discutir as razões do sobrepastoreio nas “rangeland” Mediterrâneas, Le Houerou (1981) considera a principal razão, o clima mediterrâneo em si, e mais especificamente, os Invernos temperados e chuvosos, que permitem aos animais permanecer ao ar livre, não apenas no Verão – como acontece em áreas temperadas – mas igualmente no Inverno, resultando em períodos de pastagem, que praticamente dura o ano inteiro. (DIS4ME)
