I say in general that is true, good point.
Rescuing an endangered species with the intention of preserving the genetic integrity of the species and possibly re-introducing it into the wild... is kind of like preserving a collection of old weapons that may someday regain or gain more recognition as a valuable part of a people's history and culture. Obviously conditions weren't right or the animal wouldn't be on the verge of extinction... obviously conditions aren't right or these weapons probably wouldn't have ended up in your collection!
Weapon collectors are sometimes said to be crazy. Why I don't know?
