Many plants such as this Tillandsia Rothii are still collected from the wild. For some species the numbers of plants collected each year is low that the collection does not significantly affect the population numbers. But others are so popular and have been collected in such high numbers that collection was a significant threat and now all collection of many species is banned: There is a fixed quota of zero.

Optimal foraging theory

Optimal diet model
-
Predator should be more successful by broadening its diet to include prey that are lower in energy if they are abundant and easy to handle
Some prey items will always be eaten if they are encountered, others will never be eaten even if easy to obtain
Probability of a particular plant to be eaten depends partially on the abundance of other plants that are easy to handle and have higher value: less profitable will be ignored if more profitable prey is available
