What role does the Gila woodpecker have for the saguaro cactus?
One role that the Gila woodpecker [Melanerpes uropygialis] plays for the saguaro cactus [Carnegiea gigantea] is as pollinator. It's one of the major predators of the saguaro's large, edible, dark plum like fruits. In eating the fruit, it eliminates the seeds by which the saguaro naturally reproduces.Another role is as predator. In a way, it doesn't matter how many saguaro fruits that that woodpecker eats. What's important is the elimination of the digested seeds. It's a natural way of insuring perpetuation of the saguaro species.But the woodpecker affects another of the cactus' body parts other than the fruit. The woodpecker is known to drill holes into the stem, for nest building. The drilling and the nesting can be a problem, depending upon the extent of the damage.
