Don't look at the now, the moment, look at the long run. If they had missionaried for a religion that creates a reverance to natures creation and destruction for self-gain as a colonial, anti-god ideology, that would create longterm prospects for this to survive.
If they had planted plants poisonous to goats and sheep, this could have endured longer.
If they made this sort of work a yearly festival. That would have done more then a incentive driven strawfire.
