The USFWS has listed that there are 1131 species that are endangered at this time. Since the formation of the Endangered Species Act in the 1970's only 12 species have been rehabilitated and removed from this list, now that just barely over a 1% success rate. Now how can we call that EPA and the USFWS successfull with a record like that.

True, million of of dollars are spent for only a few species (ie.Panda) when huge amount of other species are on the way of total extinction .... I shall better say "extermination".
But the Panda public media case as done a lot for the world wide concern about ecology.
Conservation of natural eco-systems is the only answer, but how to do it in face of the human expension "modern needs" ?
Will the only answer be the end of our consumer civilisation ?
