The statement is absolutely wrong.

Explanation:

The reason is that the just like humans, a company is also part of the society and so it owes a duty of care towards them. The least that an organisation can do is to compensate the stakeholders that are harmed by their operations.

In the nutshell, the animals and plants are also part of our society and they have an equal right to live on this planet as we have. The least the company can do is not harm them or if it harms them due to its negligence then it should compensate them.
