Papayas have tiny black peppercorn sized seeds and several hundred in each Papaya. It is an easy fruit to pick. I would think an animal that ate a papaya would also eat some seeds and they would germinate after going through them.
The fruit gets eaten which the animals eat and they do not get eaten because they are too big and then they germinate and grow into a new plant.
