Invasive plants may promote feral non-native animals. One of the best known examples of this is the pink passionflower (Passiflora tarminiana, syn. Passiflora mollissima). The fruits are favored by feral pigs in forested areas of the Hawaiian Islands where both species are invasive pests. The passionfruit benefits in turn when the pigs consume its fruit and disperse its seeds in their scat.
