What is the most likely niche partitioning mechanism for the four Mpala herbivores? Support your claim with evidence.

An organism's niche is its place and role in an ecosystem, including where it lives and how it obtains

the resources it needs to survive. If competing species use the environment differently, or partition

resources, they can coexist in the same area; niche partitioning facilitates coexistence of similar

species in a habitat. In this activity, students use data presented in the HHMI 2015 Holiday Lecture

"How Species Coexist" to explore the concept of niche partitioning, learn about mechanisms of niche

partitioning, and consider the classic grazer-browser spectrum paradigm in light of new dietary data

obtained from DNA metabarcoding.
