I voted that I would have to think about it but I thought it said $10,000. Now that I've noticed the real amount I have to admit that I would probably do it. But I would find one that was terribly sick and was going to die anyway so that it would be a mercy killing and then I would donate a shitload of the money to panda conservation to ease my conscience.

No. It has to be a perfectly healthy baby Panda. I will still allow you to donate a shitload of money. I'm not sure they'd take it though. Blood money and all that.

I love pandas. I had stuffed pandas when I was a kid. The panda is my sorority mascot. My cute little dorm room was adorned with pandas. I decorated my babies' nurseries in pandas. I love pandas.

If I caught you harming a panda, I would club you to death.

Did I mention that I love pandas?

I don't think I could do it. I've beaten a few rats to death with a baton, but those were diseased vermin that had chewed their way through the walls into my home and threatened my pets and my family's health, and I STILL felt sick about it. It's a lot harder than you'd think, and a baby panda would be a lot larger and tougher than a rat, so it would take a lot longer and be even more gruesome an act. I've hunted before, and I didn't have too much trouble shooting an animal that was in bad shape because of over population that I knew I was going to use for food, but beating a living creature to death is rough stuff. I've watches some of that Hogs Gone Wild, and I don't think I'd have any trouble shooting a feral pig that was threatening my home and my family. However, clubbing a helpless creature that had done nothing to me is a totally different matter. So, no, I don't think I could do it.

I know it's sick, but I think Colchar has the right idea here. Yes, beat the panda to death, but donate an assload of money to great causes. You could even make the donations in the name of the deceased panda, and perhaps include a photo to go on a plaque in the foyer of the building where the charity is located. In short, the panda would be a hero and you'd have financial security. That's pretty much a win/win.

I agree though (to Bjornolf's point), it would be much harder than you think to bludgeon the life out of something that cute and cuddly.
