I think that "licenced" collection should be permitted but only for the the purpose of preservation where a species is truly in danger of becoming extinct or being destroyed.
Some sort of botanical inspectorate should be responsible for monitoring what people are growing/selling/moving/destroying.
Surely native plants are equally as important as animals (which, incidentally, I also love). |
