The Siran Valley in Pakistan has over 143 plant species used by locals, with 89 having medicinal properties. A study focused on 29 common plant uses and the conservation status of 22 species. The Panjul Forests need special attention for flora and fauna recovery. Proper management can help restore the ecosystem, protect medicinal plant diversity, and aid in the rehabilitation of plants and large mammals in the area.
