I neglected to mention....nothing HAS been done, or not doing ENOUGH. That's why we're in the invasive plant mess right now!
That's why I'm a huge admirer of Professor Doug Tallamy, an EXPERIENCED bug man who gave exactly the right message sprinkled with a side of hope. Also, the Kunta butterfly is a native of Florida. I'd post a link but don't know if it's allowed? At any rate, search by "tallamy Kunta extinction " , or various, and the story should populate.
