Evolution has tried and tried to kill Pandas for centuries. They only exist because we think they're cute.
Exactly. Was going to say the same thing. lol.
"Pandas have absolutely no interest in reproducing. They rarely mate," Lentz says. That goes against the raison d'etre of a species. "We spend all this money flying these animals around the world, trying to convince them to mate, and we could spend it on a lot of other stuff.
"Second of all, they eat bamboo. They're not supposed to eat bamboo. Their bodies are not adapted to digest cellulose, but they hang in there with the bamboo. But the result of that is that they have to eat a ton of bamboo," he says. "They don't have a lot of energy to do things, like to mate.
"That could be Nature kind of hinting around the fact that they should collectively shuffle off this mortal coil."
