Why are we managing grizzly bears and wolves without discussing preserving habitats for them? We set aside relatively tiny chunks of land that can't support a self-sustaining population. It just makes them very expensive pet projects for people. Why do protect box turtles from collection then bulldoze their habitat?

Quite simply the land owned is worth more than the animals on it. When the animal is worth more than the land people will preserve it.
