Animals drop feces and urine on the ground, which decompose into organic matter. Animals also die and decompose back into the earth as organic matter. This organic matter is essentially the fertilizer that helps plants grow. This natural fertilizer also contains more nutrients than what plants can get from their own dead matter.
