Sometimes whole seeds can pass through the digestive system without being digested and are visible in the feces of mammals and birds and various other species. In fact, this is a method some plants evolved to use in reproduction... they have developed fruits that are flavorful and eaten by animals or birds and the seeds inside the fruits pass through undigested, where they are left with the feces of the animal where they can grow.

Note that this process of seed dispersion also has the benefit that the feces not only contain the seeds, but also some small amount of fertilizing waste to aid the plant in growing once the seed sprouts.
