@kathrinpassig@mastodon.social Chickens are always eaten by both humans and some other animals but hsve never become extinct yet the predators which are not consumed by anyone are slowly decreasing in numbers. Anything useful and valuable is always protected and preserved at any cost . Is the primary reason for protecting bee hives to have bees for pollinating flowers or to have honey produced by the bees?
