| Paul Jenkins notes that this is quite a good elk area and when the elk come through the little seeds from the Toadflax will stick in their hair and then drop off in different places the elk travel to. He also believes that birds like to eat the seeds and they pack them around and disperse them, too. Larry Peterson shows that the leaves and the top of a plant are drying out and it is going to seed now. He notes that this is what the seed pods look like. Paul picks up a single seed pod and notes that there are probably several hundred seeds in one plant. Larry pulls a pod apart and shows the tiny seeds that are barely visible in his hand.
