the main, maybe most significant reason for plants needing animals is for fertilization. Plants have evolved to reproduce effectively. Seeds need to be dispursed- note how many seeds are designed to attach to the fur of animals such as foxes/ cats or dogs
and pollination, vital for genetic variation- sexual reproduction is carried out by bees. Some plants rely on birds eating the seeds as the seeds are only able to grow when they have been excreted with sufficient nutrients from the birds faeces.
