Who knew that even flowers become endangered? I mean, you might. But I’ve never really thought about it.

The more deforestation and demolition happens in natural growth forests of Peru and Ecuador, the more these flowers are at risk. The biggest reasons for the loss of this precious land are animal agriculture, forestry, and mining.

The Monkey’s “Facial Expression” Can Vary From Flower To Flower
To make them even cooler than they already are, these flowers are like snowflakes. No two of them are the same. In fact, each of them has a different monkey face. Some of them don’t really look like monkeys, but they’re still a monkey face orchid.
