The black pitcher plant, native to specific regions in the southeastern United States, faced extinction due to habitat loss primarily caused by urban development, agriculture, and invasive species. Additionally, changes in fire management practices disrupted the natural ecosystems that supported its growth. Over-collection for horticultural purposes also contributed to its decline. Conservation efforts are critical to preserving the remaining populations of this unique plant.
