2. Not allowing Sales of Endangered Animals Reduces Breeding
Even when a scheme to reduce sales of wild caught animals is successful, when the sale of domestic-bred specimens of the same species is also banned, then respectable breeders lose their incentive to keep breeding. The result is fewer living specimens of the endangered species worldwide.
Last year, with the declaration of American domesticated chimpanzees an endangered species by U.S. Fish and Wildlife, what was once a thriving trade in domestically bred chimpanzees in the State of Missouri has come to a dramatic end.
While American tax dollars are being siphoned into Africa to help Jane Goodall with her conservation efforts, the government of the United States has effectively banned the sale of domestically bred chimpanzees across state lines. That means that there is no more financial incentive to breed chimpanzees in captivity in the United States, and in all likelihood by the time chimpanzees become extinct in Africa, due to destruction of their habitat, the chimpanzees in the United States will have long since died out. By declaring the American bred chimpanzee — which was never a native wildlife species here — to be endangered, US Fish & Wildlife has guaranteed their extinction.
