Endangered plants are species that are at risk of extinction due to various factors, including habitat loss, climate change, and invasive species. These plants play crucial roles in their ecosystems, providing food and shelter for wildlife, and contributing to soil health and air quality. Conservation efforts aim to protect endangered plants through habitat restoration, legal protection, and cultivation in botanical gardens. Organizations like the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) monitor plant species and raise awareness about the importance of preserving biodiversity for future generations.
