When seeds are dispersed by an animal they are usually either consumed by the animal then expelled in the animal's waste or caught in the animal's fur and later released as the animal shed. In both scenarios the animal acts as a transport for the seeds and can carry seeds much further than the small launch in a plant's explosive mechanism
Witch hazel seeds are dispersed through explosive dehiscence, where the seed capsules burst open and shoot the seeds away from the parent plant. This mechanism helps the seeds to be spread over a wider area for germination.

explosive mechanism
Rubber trees disperse their seeds through wind or water. The seeds of the rubber tree are typically small and lightweight, making them easy to be carried away by the wind to new locations suitable for germination. Alternatively, the seeds can also be dispersed through waterways, allowing them to travel and potentially grow in distant areas.
Explosive or splitting action
Castor plants disperse their seeds through explosive dehiscence of the fruit capsules. When the capsule dries out, it splits open rapidly, ejecting the seeds away from the parent plant. This mechanism helps the seeds to spread and germinate in new locations.
Seeds can be dispersed through wind (anemochory), water (hydrochory), animals (zoochory), and by explosive mechanisms (ballochory).
