Biodiversity hotspots are important areas for conservation efforts to protect species from habitat loss and extinction. These hotspots help prioritize where to focus conservation resources for the most effective results. However, it's crucial to consider other areas with conservation value, not just hotspots. Conservation strategies should not only focus on the number of species present but also take into account the overall biodiversity of an ecosystem. To better protect biodiversity, a more interdisciplinary approach involving partnerships between scientists and policymakers is needed.
