If nothing else, it will bring money in to help the zoo's successful breeding programmes. Away the greenies- you should be ashamed to be such spoilers!

I was confronted by a bear out in the wild last night!!!!!
He stood towering over me and i asked him what he wanted!!!

After about 5 minutes he raised his arms up in front of me.......

And i asked 'why the big pause'?

I'm here all week.

The usual suspects moaning about conservation efforts, but these ignoramuses fail to realise is that wild giant pandas as with many other species such as Siberian tigers are vulnerable and even with the best efforts might become extinct in the wild. What then? Of course many eco-nuts would prefer that the animal goes extinct rather than have a captive gene pool, but their flawed mentality is par for the course. The zoo is to be applauded in their attempts to bring this species to Edinburgh.

Bring the Pandas in- they can breed at the zoo, not be in any danger and we all get to look at them. That's what zoos are for!!

The Zoo does not have the same habitat that the Panda is used to but,they would be looked after in saftey,and could breed.

Many breeding projects with animals on the endangered list have been carried out sucessfully in zoos here in the states. Why could not Scotland do the same? I think they could and care for the animals at the same time. And (as you may know) many wild animals live longer in captivity than in the wild because they are BETTER cared for. Bring on the pandas.
