Herbivory and nutrients are major ecosystem drivers in African tropical savanna. We studied the effects of Impala (Aepyceros melampus) dung midden on some selected soil properties and grass species diversity in Nyakasanga Hunting Area. The main objective of the study was to measure nutrient concentrations and grass species diversity on impala dung midden and nondung midden. A purposive sampling technique was used to select grass and soil sampling points. Ten (10) sample sites in mopane woodland (wet season) and eight (8) from the floodplain (dry season) were sampled for vegetation and soil attributes. The titrimetric method using ferrous sulphate was used to test soil organic carbon and other chemical properties were determined by the atomic absorption spectrophotometer.
