Not exactly , My main point of disagreement is that much of your opinion imply's that you can preserve the purity of a native species by placing it into a new and artificial habitat.

Urbanization instantly creates an environment that skips the evolutionary process and really has no native species. Anything that enters it is an introduced species . I think the question is better phrased by asking,

Is it preferable to establish this new environment with creatures that were native to the previous eco system allowing them to follow a path of forced evolution as unchallenged as possible? Or
is it preferable to have it populated with a group comprised from varied sources?

A complicated question for sure but preferable or not I don`t think the first part is any longer an option. Ernie Eison
