The presence of wolves nearby induces stress on the livestock which, “can result in increased susceptibility…

tend to dry out too fast for lantana unless soil moisture is constantly replenished. It has been recorded at elevations up to 1000 m in Queensland. Lantana infests disturbed locations, especially clear sunlit areas, such as roadsides, cultivated pastures and fencelines. From there it can occupy the boundaries of forests, but it does not prosper as well under a big canopy as it is not very shade tolerant.
