"It is time to let the Panda go"

[karohemd]

Interesting viewpoint and I think quite valid as "survival of the fittest" applies here and the panda is, quite frankly, too stupidill adapted to survive. It would be entirely different if all it took was to conserve or expand his habitat.

I'd be interested to hear what my naturalist/conservationist friends think about this.

Y'see, to me a more important question is "Can we actually save it?"

Has the numbers dropped sufficiently such that the panda just won't survive pretty much whatever we do?

Also, what about the (making up numbers here) three/seven/twenty less cute but more viable species, that have more drectly been put in an insurvivable position by us, and that could be saved with the money that's currently being spent trying to save Pandas?
