• You cannot begin to preserve any species of animal unless you preserve the habitat in which it dwells. Disturb or destroy that habitat and you will exterminate the species as surely as if you had shot it.

This is vital not only for the preservation of animal life generally, but for the future existence of man himself - a point that seems to escape many people.
