In fact, “when Yavanna discovered the mercy of Eru to Aule in the matter of the Dwarves, she besought Eru (through Manwe) asking him to give life” to the Ents, so that “the Ents were either souls sent to inhabit trees, or else that slowly took the likeness of trees owing to their inborn love of trees”.
Where did the other Ents go?
There used to be Entwives (literally “ent-women”), but they started to move farther away from the Ents because they liked to plant and control things, so they moved away to the region that would later become the Brown Lands across the Great River Anduin. This area was destroyed by Sauron, and the Entwives disappeared.
