The wood-pasture hypothesis, also known as the Vera hypothesis and the megaherbivore theory is a scientific hypothesis that posits that open and semi-open pastures and wood-pastures formed and maintained by large wild herbivores, rather than primeval forests, would have formed the predominant type of landscape in post-glacial Europe, thus opposing the common belief. As the name Vera hypothesis implies, it was first proposed by Dutch researcher Frans Vera in his book Grazing Ecology and Forest History in 2000 and translated into English in 2002. Vera's ideas were not completely novel at the time. Already two years earlier, Oliver Rackham had published an article in which he criticised the idea of an all-encompassing, dark primeval forest in pre-Neolithic times as envisioned by the majority

  • Die Megaherbivorenhypothese ist eine Hypothese aus den Bereichen Ökologie und Geobotanik über den entscheidenden Einfluss großer Pflanzenfresser – der Megaherbivoren (von altgriech. mega ‚groß‘, lat. herba ‚Kraut‘ und vorare ‚verschlingen‘) – auf die potenzielle natürliche Vegetation (insbesondere von Waldland) sowie die Landschaftsstruktur. (de)
  • La megaherbvorul-teorio sugestas, ke Meza Eŭropo estus sen homa influone (preskaŭ) komplete kovrita de arbaroj (kiel supozas ĝis nun plej multajfakuloj), sed pro la influo de grandaj plantmanĝantoj(megaherbvoruloj) konsistus grandparte el mozaiko el arbaretoj (boskoj)kaj herbejoj kun unuopaj arboj kaj arbustoj.La fakton, ke nuntempe en Meza Eŭropo la laŭnatura disvolviĝasde ajna elirstadio preskaŭ ĉie al kiel fazo, kaŭzas laŭ tiu teorio la nuna manko de la megaherbvoruloj,kiuj iam abundis en Mezeŭropo kaj aŭ formortis aŭ estis ekstermitajde la homo.De tiuj grandaj plantmanĝantoj malaperis ankoraŭ en historia tempouro, bizono, tarpano kaj alko, antaŭe jam specioj deelefantoj kaj rinoceroj, kies influo sur la vegetaĵo estiseĉ multe pli drasta.
