Sorry to be a wet blanket, but just buying a bog is not the whole
answer. I'm certain there have been cases in the UK where an area of
wetland been designated a site of Special Scientific Interest but the
surrounding land has been unprotected so farmers and developers have
moved in and put drainage ditches in which adversely affected the
wetland by removing its water supply.
In the US, are sites where CITES A plants grow automatically protected
against development?
