"Popular-to-eat animals face extinction sooner than you realize!" Oh no! Get out your preservation-themed bib, tablecloth and utensils. This is a company that sells eating implements with endangered-species-themed marketing. The profits go to preserving the endangered species for more eating.

Annotation:







       I'm pretty sure that palatability is a survival advantage - there are more chickens in the world than humans (and, indeed, than any other species of bird).   

       If there were a McPanda restaurant chain, they'd have those things breeding faster than rabbits in no time.

       Too bad it didn't help the buffalo.   

       As far as I'm aware, all buffalo species are doing just fine.

       Ah, see they taught us in school that the American Buffalo had been hunted to extinction and that the buffalo nowadays is imported bison.   

       That'll learn me to double check the crap I was taught.   

       Yes because [mb] is always a lot more reliable than the national school system.

       Catch-22 situations are an insatiable hunger.
