What I didn't glean from this article was "why". Is there an expected benefit to the ecosystems these are being reintroduced to? Is it simple "more biodiversity is better"? Is it like Jurassic Park and just because we can?

Their primary two threats are drought and wildfire, not things that we're expecting to lessen any time soon. What's the purpose of introducing a species to a climate they're not suited to?

And I'm not asking facetiously, if someone has genuine answers, I'm interested.
