Yucca species are the host plants for the caterpillars of the yucca giant-skipper (Megathymus yuccae), ursine giant-skipper (Megathymus ursus), and Strecker's giant-skipper (Megathymus streckeri).ried yucca leaves and trunk fibers have a low ignition temperature, making the plant desirable for use in starting fires via friction. In rural Appalachian areas, species such as Yucca filamentosa are referred to as meat hangers.

The adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is a fairly uncommon tumor, but it usually can be easily identified from its clinical and radiographic appearance.
