Animals such as rabbits, kangaroos, and sheep are known to eat tussock grass. These animals graze on the tufted grasses which make up tussocks, deriving nutrition and sustenance from them.
Tussock grass has several adaptations that enable it to thrive in its environment, including dense, clumped growth that helps retain moisture and resist erosion. Its deep root system allows it to access water and nutrients from deeper soil layers, while its ability to tolerate drought and fire enhances its resilience. Additionally, the grass's tough, fibrous leaves can withstand grazing pressure from herbivores. These adaptations collectively help tussock grass survive in often challenging habitats.
