commensalism because one benefits and the other isn't harmed
My goats love burdock. I also want to know if there are any beef cows that will eat burdock.
The seeds (burrs) of the Burdock are covered in hooks which catch onto the clothes of humans, or the fur of animals that brush against the ripe burrs. Eventually, the seeds, clustered in the burrs, shake loose and are spread over a wide area. Incidentally, it was this hook and cloth process that led to the Velcro fastening system, much used today.
Burdock root has been traditionally used for its potential anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, which may help in promoting wound healing and reducing infection risk. However, it is essential to note that burdock root should not be considered a primary treatment for infected rat bites. Seeking prompt medical attention, including cleaning the wound thoroughly, applying appropriate antibiotics, and monitoring for any signs of systemic infection, is crucial in managing rat bites to prevent complications.
It is the phonetic spelling for burdocks which are the velcro like spheres that stick to clothing, hair, etc., that come from a thistle plant named burdock.
I have no solid evidence but two of my dogs began having stomach issues for a three day period while they had been eating burdock leaves. I only noticed they had eaten the leaves after the smaller dog need a vet trip for vomitting and diarrhea. The larger dog had diarrhea for the same period of time, I cut the plants down and have had no problems since.

Burdock uses animal dispersal method through burs that attach to the fur of animals or clothing, allowing them to be carried to new locations.

One example of a plant that disperses its seeds by animals is the burdock plant. Its seeds have small hooks that easily attach to the fur of passing animals, which then carry the seeds to new locations as they move around.
