I don't have a problem with poodles, but breeding them wasn't a conservation effort. Not everything we do needs to be, but I'm concerned that programs like this one suck air from programs that could actually make progress towards real conservation. If they framed it as a poodle-breeding effort I would be unconcerned.

Do you really think bringing in the types that find reviving extinct animals 'sucks the air' from conservation efforts? It gives an interesting visual story that protecting a rodent species in the middle of nowhere can't.
