I wish we would erode more property "rights" in the name of conservation, since th actions of landowners affect everyone else, including all future generations.
Every extinct species is another burning of the Library of Alexandria.

I was unable to find anything close to this after some searching.
But I'm not a fan of re-introducing (or introducing) these species into this habitat. Into London no less! After 400 years!!
Today, everything is politicised.
In the UK, farmers are forced to keep their cows enclosed in barns, in order to allow the orchids to grow. The message is 'nevermind the cows, nature is for orchids'.
I strongly suspect that these sorts of measures are taken in order to justify further governmental intrusion on what people are allowed to do, and to erode property rights in the name of conservation.
