Pawpaw trees (Asimina triloba) are primarily dispersed by animals, particularly mammals such as raccoons, squirrels, and deer. These animals eat the ripe fruit, which contains seeds, and then excrete the seeds in different locations, facilitating germination in new areas. Additionally, the fleshy fruit's sweet taste attracts various birds, further aiding in seed dispersal. However, the seeds require specific conditions for germination, including a period of cold stratification.
