www.abc.net.au...

A giant-panda breeding program has seen 23 cubs born in 2016,
giving hope to the survival of the vulnerable species. The bears made
their public debut at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda
Breeding in China. However, it appeared one curious cub was not
content with being on display and attempted to make a run for it.
The photo opportunity has attracted global attention and is highlighting
the conservation efforts of the research base.

There's always one explorer ..... at least he's awake !
The other 22 need a couple of espressos .. or something !

They should post a sign, "No Stage Diving"!!

Especially when there is no mosh pit to catch you!

[ETA: No pandas were harmed in the making of this news story!]

I hate Pandas screw them they are lost and evolutionary rubbish....yeah they look so cute but the money wasted on them is much better spent on other less cute less rubbish animals.
Tough luck Pandas but you are just a cute ad for zoos.

I felt like putting a bullet between the eyes of every Panda that wouldn't screw to save its species. I wanted to open the dump valves on oil tankers and smother all the French beaches I'd never see. I wanted to breathe smoke.

Not destroying their natural habitat would be a much better way of ensuring their survival.

There isn't enough left for them to go one thats my point yeah very sad for them but lets admit defeat let them free to do what they want (they will just die) and help save other animals that have a chance.
The only future they have is as pets....

Why should we help save other animals but not pandas? Anyway, species conservation is just a way of making us feel better about all the harm we inflicted upon them. Oh we destroyed their homes and left no tree standing, but it's okay because we are doing everything we can to keep a handful of them clinging on to life. Plus it's good entertainment for the humans who pay to come see them and take selfies.

Nah, I remember a documentary I saw about pandas. Even when they have plenty of natural habitat, It takes them years to mature and mate with low rates of success.

So it's a mix of the two. Not to worry though.

Out of all the endangered animals on the planet, the panda has the highest chances of survival, for one simple reason: the panda is in the World Wildlife Fund logo.

As you can imagine, it's in their best interest to keep the cute fluffy pandas alive (and the generous donations coming in!).
