Seed Dispersal

This is a pine cone I found on a walk with my dogs.  Seed dispersal is the movement or transport of seeds away from the parent plant.  Female conifers hold seeds.  These seeds can be dispersed by wind or animals.  Wind can move seeds and animals can eat the cones and deposit the seeds in its droppings.
