Is it true milkweed seeds are dispersed by animals carrying and burying then?

Yes, it's true that some milkweed seeds are dispersed by animals. Specifically, certain species of animals, like squirrels, may carry and bury the seeds, helping to spread them to new locations. This behavior can aid in the germination of seeds as they are often buried in nutrient-rich soil. However, the primary method of dispersal for milkweed seeds is through wind, as they have silky tufts that allow them to be carried over long distances.
