> just the ability to go see one in the wild has value IMHO. Two thoughts: 1. A common mistake is to think that just because something has value, it's good to do. This reasoning ignores cost! Only by comparing cost and benefits can we make informed choices. 2. This value is specific to you. Others assign less or more value for this. |

3. Causing a species to go extinct eliminates all possibility of anyone extracting any value from it now or in the future. That has an unknown and potentially enormous cost in the long run.
