I really wonder wether there were,besides the Ents in the areas covered by LOTR, Ents in places that are beyond the borders of north-west Middle Earth.Rainforests in the South or other forests in Asia would seem suitable,so maybe Ents inhabited them? Or could Yavanna have had Ents in her service in Valinor,or other parts of Aman? I hope to think so,because i can't stomach the Ents completely disappearing.......it would be a very sad and griefing thought,eventhough Tolkien seems to have accepted that as the reality of his world.
