Birds eat berries and seeds, dispersing the seeds in their droppings as they fly.

Answer 1

The behavior that can end up being more harmful than helpful is when birds eat berries and seeds and disperse the seeds in their droppings as they fly. While this behavior can help disperse the seeds and allow for new plant growth in different areas, it can also lead to invasive species spreading and disrupting native ecosystems.
