Based on the embedded video, and in the absence of any qualified dissenting opinion, I would say yes. On a micro-level it feels a bit ethically grey, but if you look at it as part of an overall plan to combat bio-diversity then it has more merit. However, it is pretty sad that the average Australian is seemingly so obsessed with restoring this one lost animal but doesn’t give a shit about any of the incredible species we still have with us.
Definitely but I worry. People (farmers and governments) are more than happy shooting and killing dingoes, mislabelling them as wild dogs. Does this mean the Thylacine would be “havened” for safety. Can’t have an environment without apex predators (or are cats now our apex?).
Or is the money better spent on protecting what we have? Of which we are doing an absolutely shitty job of (read 95% of the articles posted recently).
