Tragacantha Caprina

Tragacantha caprina is a rare and resilient plant native to the arid regions of the Middle East and North Africa. Known for its unique ability to thrive in harsh, dry environments, it has adapted to extreme conditions through specialized root systems and water-conserving leaves. The plant produces a distinctive sap that has been historically used in traditional medicine and as a natural adhesive. Despite its ecological significance, Tragacantha caprina remains under threat due to habitat loss and overharvesting. Understanding and protecting this species is crucial for preserving biodiversity in its native ecosystems.
