Scaling theory allows us to predict animal impacts on seed distribution, zoogeochemistry, pathogen movement, and vegetation structure over space and time. Here we have both reviewed this literature and suggested future directions to scale such work over space and time and apply it to such disparate fields as ecosystem ecology, paleontology and remote sensing.
