That seems a bit like complaining that cattle are replacing native deer.

They may occupy the same niche, but one feeds people and the other does not.

Yeah but people don't make a big deal about "save the deer!" and then start a cattle ranch

When people talk about saving the bees they usually mean the ones responsible for feeding us.

Because deer are also invasive and aren't needed for cattle breeding. Not a great analogy
