My main problem with his stance is that he's potentially throwing out the baby with the bathwater.
Naturally, we tend to cherry-pick things which support our own position on things. But one should be equally wary of believing that all of those cherries are fake as accepting that they are true.

Re: Our way of life ending
https://www.harpersbazaar.com/uk/tra...afaris-really/"If the animal’s best interest is to live a full life in the wild, it’s not to try and accustom them to human behaviour so that tourists can take selfies"
Another challenge facing wildlife safari is the risk that the animals have in contracting human illnesses.
“Due to close genetic relatedness, gorillas are at risk of contracting human pathogens, tourists are not permitted to track gorillas when they’re sick. “Common colds are among the illnesses and that’s why recommended at least to keep seven metres away while viewing gorillas.”
Without the economic benefits of safari tourism, then local communities are unlikely to see the advantages of looking after the animals, especially when they so often roam into neighbouring villages and eat from their farms, and therefore damaging their livelihoods

Not quite sure what he was applying it to in this context, but it's a pity that he seems to have forgotten the first two laws which, it could be argued, work against his laissez faire attitude.
In layman's terms:
1 Things will carry on progressing in their uniform state until you start messing with them.
2 The rate at which things change (away from the uniform state) is proportional to the amount of messing about that you do.

The only overfishing taking place is in certain areas, again I must remind you how huge the oceans are. Perhaps the fish are wising up and moving out of reach.
I'm no scientist but we take a small snapshot of something happening in the world and suddenly the end is nigh....
