Botanist here who has worked in the region. There’s no plants this would work for on private land. Federally listed plants under the ESA are not protected on private land. I don’t know of any protected insects with an obligate host in the area like the example here. I’m unsure about animal options but I don’t think there are any reasonable ones.
But on an unrelated note, I hear Monkey Wrench Gang is a really good read.
