11 animals that I will never get to see in person. Never get to interact with. Never get to eat. It's so, so sad because I am so hungry.

Sigh - ok then (why do I bother).<quote>I'm not religious in the slightest, but if thats what makes up the entirity (sic) of your bulls**t argument, then i refuse to answer</quote>You have to resort to vernacular to argue your point? Not content with bashing my views (which are no less/more important than your own), you then go on to point out the flaws in someone else's religious beliefs, of which you have no knowledge or care.<quote>Please tell me why it wasnt (sic) natural how these species died out?</quote>First article:"The biggest cause of their extinction in the wild was a massive hunting campaign instituted by the Tasmanian government from 1888 to 1909, justified because the Thylacines were believed to be a threat to sheep and hens"Sounds pretty f**kING unnatural to me doesn't it ****y? Oh bugger, there I go, lowering myself to your level.Please form an argument before joining a discussion, rather than just having a go at other people.Ta

Alternate, pro- human nature solution: Colonize other planets. It's cooler, we'll have to do it soon anyway, and we can f**k as much as we want.

i've always found it creepy looking at pictures of s**t you already know is dead. On a second note, thank god the Quagga is dead. I don't need an animal confusing me any more than that

This whole article was highly depressing, but LOL @ "In fact, in 1703 the Catholic bishop of Quebec actually excommunicated the entire species," regarding the Passenger Pigeon!
