Would you buy an item made of panda poop, if proceeds went to save pandas?

Nothing says 'I love you' like a photo frame made from panda poop. The Chengdu Giant Panda Breeding Base has come up with a dung-for-profit scheme that turns droppings from the endangered species into odor-free souvenirs ranging from bookmarks to Olympic-themed statues of the animals. The facility in the southwestern province of Sichuan houses about 40 bamboo-fed pandas who produce less than a ton of excrement a day. 'We used to spend at least 6,000 yuan ($770) a month to get rid of the droppings but now they can be lucrative,' Jing Shimin, assistant to the base director, was quoted as saying by the official Xinhua News Agency.
