If the dugong becomes extinct, the marine environment will face significant ecological changes. As a herbivorous marine mammal, dugongs play a crucial role in maintaining seagrass ecosystems by grazing, which promotes seagrass growth and health. Their decline could lead to overgrowth of seagrass, negatively impacting biodiversity and altering habitats for other marine species. Furthermore, the loss of dugongs may disrupt the food web, affecting predator-prey relationships and overall marine ecosystem balance.
