Their work focused on a model for annual plants with seed predators, from which they reached two conclusions.

Of these, the cardinals destroyed the seed by crushing and is thus considered a seed predator.

It is the main seed predator of Banksia prionotes.

This strategy has the potential to regulate the size of the population of seed predators.

Birds, rodents, and ants are known to be among the most pervasive postdispersal seed predators.

However, in grassland habitat the seed predator had little effect on the plant population because it was safe site limited.

Other seed predators collect seeds and then store or cache them for later consumption.

The weevil Pachymerus cardo is known to be a seed predator on this species.

An important factor in seed survival is the presence of seed predators.

Many birds eat seeds and are often referred to as seed predators.
