Long Distance Seed Dispersal by Forest Elephants [PDF]
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 By dispersing seeds long distances, large, fruit-eating animals influence plant population spread and community dynamics. After fruit consumption, animal gut passage time and movement determine seed dispersal patterns and distances. These, in turn, are influenced by extrinsic, environmental variables and intrinsic, individual-level variables.
