Which one of the following principles, if valid, most helps to justify the reasoning above?
Some species are more deserving of protection than are other species.
Rare animals should not be moved from one habitat to another unless these habitats are similar to one another.
If a species is in danger of extinction, whatever is most likely to prevent the extinction should be undertaken.
The rarer a species of plant or animal is, the more that should be done to protect that species.
If an animal's original habitat is in danger of being lost, it is permissible to try to find a new habitat for the animal.
