The Ugly Truth About Conservation Bias

The brutal truth of conservation bias in one Gordon Ramsay meme! Humans have this ridiculous tendency to care exponentially more about saving species with "aesthetic appeal" (pandas, tigers, elephants) while practically ignoring equally important but visually underwhelming endangered creatures (naked mole rats, various insects, blob fish). This selective empathy is called "conservation charisma" in biodiversity research, and it's why cute animals get all the funding while ecologically crucial "ugly" species fight for scraps. The meme perfectly captures our shallow evolutionary psychology - we're hardwired to protect things that trigger our nurturing instincts through neotenic features (big eyes, round faces) while telling everything else to go extinct in peace.
