FLORA OF THE HILL WETLANDS OF THE NILGIRIS
-
Description
-
The Nilgiris wetlands are critical ecosystems supporting diverse flora and fauna while providing essential services like water purification and biodiversity support. However, these habitats face significant threats, including invasive species, pesticide pollution from nearby agriculture, overgrazing by cattle, and land-use changes such as conversion to agricultural and urban areas. This degradation has led to the loss of biodiversity and put many species at risk of extinction. There is a pressing need for greater awareness and understanding of the wetlands' importance to prevent further destruction and preserve their ecological functions.
