As an economics professor told me, the companies that survive don't necessarily have to be the best, they just have to be better than break-even.
Apparently, pandas were able to keep the birthrate > deathrate, at least for the last 18 million years or so. Many animals in captivity experience decreased sex drive. Would you be able to perform in front of a room of zoologists? Okay, not you, Spexxvet.

You may be on to something since pandas have poor eyesight.

Border collies are the one dog that I would expect to watch TV and understand it, perhaps even write important criticism.
(Although in this case I suspect he was tracking Uncle's behavior, who might also run for the telly at the sound of the MotD theme, and growl at Auntie trying to change the channel) |

My boys get interested in television when the camera is static and the images move from one side of the screen to the other. There was a sports trailer where a ball would bounce onto the screen and it caught their attention every time. I'm tempted to buy them a cat dvd.

1) Some sort of bamboo mold makes them horny, and it is not in most zoos, ans is dying out in the wild. 2) Their mating interest is related to their range, which is minimal in zoos and diminishing in the wild. It's probably neither of these but there are certainly any number of ways that a species can be put in a precarious situation by evolution.

Yeah, but they won't procreate either.

I think the panda porn would have been more effective if the reluctant panda was watching smellovision.

Should have put another male in with the pair and let 'em duke it out. Maybe tie their left forepaws together.
