Density-dependent Limiting Factors.
Water is a density-dependent limiting factor. During the dry season of the savanna great herds grather around water sources. If a watering hole dries up the herds will have to find a new source of water, limiting the size of the population.
Density-Independent Limiting factors
During the dry season the grass and plant life become very dry setting up a great chance for wildfires. Wildfires destroy food sources for grazzing animals requiring them to move to new places to find food.
