they only eat one food that is nutritionally crap and are no good at breedinh.

Admittedly they look cute but as a spieces they are completely rubbish.

But they're big and soft and cuddley and they don't eat you.
I love pandas.

Of course YABU!
By that token, koalas should be endangered too - except they're better at breeding.

Poor cute adorable Pandas. I don't know maybe if they evolved to learn Kung Fu and eat noodles they could be more useful?

You are right though without us interferring they probably would be extinct right now it does seem like natural selection just wouldn't have them carry on.

YABU. I think they are endangered largely due to developing on the land they live on aren't they?

I do feel quite bad for thinking it but they are a bit crap.

Poor pandas.

Would they be in a better position from an evolutionary perspective if lots of their natural habitat hadn't been destroyed?

I would love to go to China to one of those panda conservation places, and cuddle baby orphan pandas all day.
It would be my dream job.

Yanbu.

I imagine that they're all depressed like Marvin the Paranoid Android & thinking 'Why do you want me to shag? Just let us die out already'.

With UnChartered on the Red, now there's a species!

Knocking of cute animals = flaming on AIBU.

You should have grasped the basics of MN by now Teggie

Peach - admittedly I'm not an expert on these things, but I thought that the main reason pandas are now endangered is because of human activity?

Partly because humans have been moving into their habitats and destroying their bamboo filled forests, and partly because of humans hunting and killing them. Without any human interference they probably wouldn't be an endangered species at all.

Sorry OP. Pandas will eat meat and other non-vegetable items if available (eg they find a fresh dead animal lying around.) They just aren't very good at catching them.

They are unbelievably cute but they need to get their act together on the breeding front.

They are more than welcome to come and use my house as a love-nest as I've got a huge bamboo plant which I would love to see the back of.
