are there useless animals?

[FallenJellyDoughnut]

Cats, Evil and stupid and owned by stupid people.

(Cat owners, don't bother responding; you'll simply be proving my point.)

Why do you hate cats? Why does anyone hate cats? Cats kick ass!

i reckon me
or girls
the amoeba is now pretty much useless

Common wasp.
They don't get eaten by anything, and the only thing they do is ruin everyone's summer.

Why is there the assumption that an animal must serve some purpose? That's not how evolution works...

Rather a lot of birds eat wasps.

It lives in Florida. It's called a lovebug.

Seen here. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lovebug]

They love to die en masse on car windshields.

The most usless animal has to be the panda.

They have no predetors and no prey apart from a fast-growing common plant and as far as I know they don't contribute in anyway to the ecosystem. They don't mate enough to sustain a population, even when enclosed in a 10-foot box, and to be honest any animal which can't be bothered to get their groove on doesn't deserve to be around anymore.

Viruses. Not animals, and disputed to even be alive, but there is no reason for them. We need to extinct them.

even though viruses are said to be the superior life forms on earth?

OT:this has been said before so I will slightly modify it. Snails...in Sweden. there are no creatures that feed on them and all they do is swarm over gardens like a plague. a few summers ago, I walked out to my yard and started picking snails from the lawn...I lost count after 200.
and this happened every day. it should be noted that I have a very big lawn and it was an extra wet summer but the average lawn gets several hundred snails every week in summer. I hate mother****ing snails.

Uh, what? How are they the superior life forms on Earth? All they do is kill everything else or make it miserable. They aren't essential to any food chain.

And what about salt? Without all those snails to feed on, kitchen salt would die out.

Lastly, we use good grammar here. Blah blah Grammar Nazi rant blah...

To start with. Viruses are the fastest "creatures" in the world when it comes to evolving. They reproduce amazingly fast and no matter what you do, the goddamn influenza will return next year.
and lastly, there is no way to destroy viruses without destroying all creatures on the planet.

off topic but the runner up superior creature is that insect thing that burrows into ants minds and controls them. I don't know the exact name because I always refer to them as the "mind controller things"

Let me ask you a question first: Are there any useless people?

Utility is entirely decided by the person asking or answering the question and is far to subjective to give a general meaning. If you think it's useless then it is and if I think its useless it is and these don't need to be the same things. Also, No I don't think useless things exist because useless things go extinct quickly.

 

[GamerPhate]

Humans...

How are we useful to the scope of anything? All we do is consume and kill things. I guess that is a use.

[Julianking93]

Everything is useless. We're on a planet that will eventually die, and nobody in the entire universe will remember it. Are we really that useful if all we're going to do is die sooner or later?

No. No we are not.

Wow, just when I was feeling pretty good about today...

 

[DTWolfwood]

yes there are usuless animals. One is the Panda, dont get me wrong i love them bears but if u think about its purpose in the world, they are useless XD

can't think of any other atm but im pretty sure i use to have a list XD

 

[Umberphoenix]

Everything serves a purpose, but we may not know what it serves or even see a difference in anything if, say, all the mosquitoes stopped existing. Sure, it would change something, but it may not be noticeable to us.

 

[Soushi]

All i know is that there is one species of plant that has no purpose, Poison Ivy

 

[zauxz]

Humans. We are here to fuck up our world.

 

[Marsell]

cockroaches
they do nothing but spread filth

 

[Standby]

Humans?

 

[Gawspel]

Pandas are pretty useless. Bamboo won't take over the world if pandas are not around.

 

[jackknife402]

I believe any animal that can't be made into a delicious meal to be useless to me, that actually leaves plenty out there, you just gotta know how to negate some types of poisons.
