Don't tell me you've never wondered! We're spending millions of dollars to keep the stupid things alive, despite the fact that they are the most certifiably boring animals in nature. A primitively motorized plush animal would provide the same level of fun.
And don't give me that ecological niche nonsense. All they do is munch bamboo, which is a weed but controllable by other means, and if they had any predators those predators are sure to be dead by now. If it were a matter of ecological importance, there are less cute, more mobile, and more important animals to save, and furthermore those animals probably will not need decades to knock each other up successfully.
With this in mind, I propose an immediate taste-test to determine what panda meat tastes like, and which condiments, if any, it goes well with. Don't get me wrong, we can still save the pandas, it's just that we'll have far more incentive to do so if they taste yummy.
