Overgrazing contributes to soil erosion because it removes the plants that help secure the topsoil in place

Answer:

Overgrazing represents an environmental hazard whereby wildlife or livestock excessively feeds on pasture. It is also the practice of grazing livestock on vegetation before it has recovered from a former grazing state, also known as intensive grazing. Otherwise stated, overgrazing takes place when vegetation or pasture is repeatedly removed from the land, and it is not given enough time to continue growing.

Intensive grazing thus causes the plant residual matter to decline and further contributes to numerous negative consequences to both the animals and the land.
