Should Pandas be "allowed" to die out...?

This sounds almost too contraversial to be taken serious, but "The Really Wild Show" presenter and BBC wildlife expert Chris Packham thinks they should!

He thinks that the species was not strong enough to survive on its own and that the millions spent preserving them could be better spent elsewhere.

it is disgusting that you would even think about letting these sexy animals die out

If the human race was to die out all flora and fauna would thrive. We know we have to leave forests in peace also for our own sake. Visit rainforestSOS.org

It's disgusting that you would make them survive with their food souces depleting and condem them to life in captivity and for what? You to gawk at? --extenction is a natural process, what your suggesting is immoral and inhumaine.

No way, it is man who has helped to destroy their numbers and now its mans responsibility to act and aim to undo the harm he has done!

There is also a straight-faced argument that gas prices could collapse to very low levels for some years. ,

I am shocked that people would say yes and not sure! These amazing animals should not become victims of deforestation due to our increased demand for materials. This is why our global development is sometimes a negative process!

we should leave nature alone, and not interfere. However, this means we should let pandas die out. I think we should help animals who have been endangered by us.

I think its discusting to let the pandas die out and we should all help by recycling Thank you

humans should undo what humans have done its humans who have chopped down the forests, endangering the pandas, so humans should do something about it.

Posted By darth millenium | 08 January 10

Its outrageous! They were put in earth for a reason! You don't leave humans to die so why should we leave pandas to!!

Posted By lulu100 | 08 January 10

pandas should be killed. they eat all the vegetables and we cant eat them so they serve no purpose. people who say pandas eat the bambo and they cut down bambo well thats crap and we should let the humans cut the bambo down and create more jobs
