Do you believe some animals deserve to die and go extinct?

For example, let's look at the giant panda. They refuse to breed and would literally do anything other than have sex. They purposely fuck themselves over by choosing to eat bamboo rather than anything else, something that is extremely poor in caloric and nutritional value. In fact, bamboo is such a poor choice of food that they spend nearly their waking hours eating. So much so that by the time a panda grows up to adult hood, they'd have already worn all their teeth down, causing them to be unable to eat and starve to death.

If you put 1 million pandas on a copy of Earth, they'd die out in less than 1 million years. The copy of Earth could have no predation, unlimited amount of bamboo, and 0 pollution and habitat destruction caused by humans. It wouldn't matter. They'd still go extinct by themselves.

So why do we protect them? Because they're cute?
