The world's prairies face significant threats from agricultural expansion, leading to habitat loss and fragmentation. Overgrazing by livestock also depletes native vegetation and disrupts ecosystems. Additionally, climate change poses risks through altered weather patterns, increased drought frequency, and invasive species encroachment, further endangering these vital landscapes. Conservation efforts are essential to protect and restore prairie ecosystems.
