How is the conservation of habitats related to the work a taxonomist does?

A taxonomist is someone who classifies animals, plants, and other organisms into their respective kingdoms, allowing the earth to be separated into different types of things. The conservation of habitats is one of the most important factors to a taxonomist because organisms are found only in specific areas/habitats. If these areas were to be destroyed, it is possible that unclassified species could be destroyed along with it, causing the taxonomist to be unable to discover them and share them with the world.
