After the Coqui is gone

So when the coqui is no longer here...what then? The Panaewa Rainforest Zoo houses several species of frogs, why not have a place where other countries can send their endangered frogs to be saved and be sent back if needed. It seems that Hawaii is a pretty good place to raise things like frogs, seeds, gmo's (sp). Maybe to soon to even consider this.
