Various types of animals (herbivores, carnivores, omnivores) live in forests and contribute to food chain. Following activities show how animals help forest grow and regenerate.
1. Animals help in dispersal of seeds from one part of the forest to other part.
2. Animal’s excreta and their dead bodies when decomposed into soil act as manure for the plants.
3. Microorganisms convert dead plants and leaves into humus which is rich in nutrients. Humus in soil provide necessary minerals for plant growth.
