Greetings. In this blog post, I will discuss both sides to the argument of panda research.
"The giant panda is the rarest member of the bear family and among the world’s most threatened animals. It is universally loved, and has a special significance for WWF as it has been the organization's logo since 1961, the year WWF was founded." (

According to my friend Amber Petty, she has a passion and interest for pandas. Although, in contrast, science teacher, Mr. Bycraft, states that he dislikes pandas because they make no effort to conserve their species and thinks it's ridiculous how much researchers spend on panda research. A poll done in The Gaurdian UK Newspaper states: 71% say save it 29% say not to. Millions of dollars are spent, and often wasted, on panda breeding and research.
I did a little more research and discovered that panda chocolate bars exist!
(www.chocolatebar.com) That's an epic win! In my opinion, I think pandas deserve every dime of research they get. Plus, I love pandas too because Key Club International supports them as their mascot at my school. Yay! Today I purchased a WWF shirt.

PANDAS FOR THE WIN.
As much as I understand why Bycraft feels that way, I stick by what I've said before.
The real reason he dislikes pandas is because he was abused by them.
He only denies it because the truth hurts so very much.
Ah yes. But that's a little too personal to write a formal report about... but thank you. :P
