They are delicate, and may be easily destroyed by a creature purposefully choosing to do so (though wild animals will not eat the ring). Druids are advised to exercise caution with where they grow such rings, as fey commonly make use of them at their leisure. Fairy Rings may cross planes, but only between the Material Plane and the Feywild - they do not function elsewhere.
