It's not fair that China has a monopoly on the world population of Pandas.
>>5088176RIP baijiRIP Yangtze giant softshell turtleRIP Chinese paddlefishWhile we're at it, did you know the Chinese elephant population used to stretch all the way to Beijing and now they're limited to a small pocket in southwest China.
>>5088180I’m still mad about that damn fish. I know we have a relative over here but it’s smaller IIRC.
>>5088313It's made even worse by the fact that they once had a pair in captivity and then proceeded to fuck them up in the dumbest way possible.>When people wait until a species is nearly gone, achingly exasperating situations can develop, Dr. Mims said, recalling that in 2004 Chinese scientists sent him photographs of two living paddlefish they were trying to maintain in a pond. (He is a specialist in aquaculture methods.) He learned that those harboring the fish were throwing rice cakes into the water, which depleted the oxygen. (The rice cakes were useless to the fish-eating species.)>Both fish died. When the female was examined, Dr. Mims said, its belly was found to be full of eggs.
>ywn get to hug young giant pandas>ywn be hugged by a cute chinese girl
>>5088180Funny how all three of those animals could of easily avoided extinction if conservation measures were prioritized for them more early rather than waste their time trying to conserve a species that is actively trying to wipe themselves out like pandas.
>>5088180>>5088356The baiji was a casualty of Mao's Cultural Revolution removing its local deity status and retarded anti-sparrow campaign causing a famine which led the starving people living there to overhunt the baiji.
>>5088180>>5088356>>5088358You lost the PR war, faggots. Pandas are cute and lovable and based, nobody gives a fuck about your ass-ugly irrelevant fish. Cope seethe and dilate, NEET bears won.
>>5088365holy shit hes literally me
>>5088365The baiji was a dolphin, not a fish
>>5088374It's all about marketing. If you want to make it in this world, you have to appeal to the great apes and get them to sponsor your continued existence. If you can't fill a niche for great apes, you will go extinct. Mammals have the market cornered, this is our epoch. Your fish never had a chance.
>>5088365Id rather have a cool fish, a miniature dolphin and a giant prehistoric looking turtle still roaming the planet than a inherently retarded bear that accidentally sits on it's own offspring and refuses to reproduce.
>>5088365>"bears won">posts pic of bear trapped in a cagekek
>>5088339Goddamn people suck
>>5088339>>5088180Apparently, artificial insemination killed the last female yangtze softshell too. You can only imagine how botched that was judging how they were retarded enough to feed those fish fucking rice cakes, China couldn't conserve animals to save to their lives.
am i really to believe this country cant pirate some pandas
>>5088180>Be the last other alligator species on the planet>On your way to extinction because your country is filled with morons that built an oversized dam and believe your meat will magically cure their cancer and make their micro-dicks grow. It must suck being any kind of animal in china let alone any turd world country for that matter.
>>5088570Pandas are literally treated like royalty in China.
>>5088571While nearly all other animals are treated as peasants. Accurate.
>>5088573see >>5088365
>>5088180>>5088566Père David's deer would've gone extinct too if Europeans hadn't bred a back-up population in their zoos.
>>5088340Fuck off
