> Peyote, an endangered plant, is excluded to protect traditional Native American spiritual practices.
Hm, this seems like a mistake. They should create a separate framework to deter the use of peyote. Like a killing endangered species framework.

The intent of the restriction is to keep the harvesting of the peyote plant at a level that hopefully prevents it from going extinct. If everyone was permitted to harvest peyote, it would be available to no one at all very quickly. Native Americans get the exception because the tribal groups that use the plant have a culture of respecting it and being caretakers of it.
