Its all about fruit and seed dispersal. A single plant produces a large number of fruits and seeds. If all seeds fall under parent plant,their chances of developing into new plant decreases as they will not be able to compete with the parent plant for nutrition and space. Dispersal helps to reduce over- crowding and competition between the members of same species for light, air, water and mineral salts.
There are various ways of dispersal of seeds. One of them is dispersal by animals which is asked here. Animals eat the fruit but sometimes unable to digest the seed.These undigested seeds are dispersed to various places along with their droppings.
For example: dispersal by cows. They not only disperse the seeds with their droppings but also add minerals and other nourishment to the seeds and even anti-bacterial and anti fungal properties, because cow dung contains many minerals, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties.
