It's certainly effective, but "hey, so, we're going to let a lot of chimpanzees we made dependent on us starve, so we can save human lives" certainly isn't moral. At the very least pay for them to be euthanized.

Which outweighs helping humans with that same money?

This is what budgets are used for.

Needed for who and what purposes? This is why budgets get sort of fixed, unless something need constant neglect.
