Before submitting to bugzilla, I called a number of friends and acquaintences in South America, and thus far none of them have actually witnessed any humping behavior, however. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. look at the icon 2. move to south america 3. buy a tarp Actual Results: vague discomfort of impending doom Expected Results: If red panda /has/ to hump a continent, at the very least it should hump the continent that it lives on -- Australia. Plus they gave us Silverchair and Yahoo Serious. Frankly, it's payback time.
I don't think the fox/red panda is humping South America, it doesn't seem to be Terra that it is humping, but perhaps another planet? Perhaps the logo should be re-vamped to use our planet, and re-center the animal's groin over Australia? They do deserve it, after all.

They do deserve it, after all. I made a mistake, in fact, the red panda is indigenous to Southern Asia. Despite this, I still contend it should still be humping Australia because they are totally asking for it.

They do deserve it, after all. Obviously, you are mistaken. I can clearly see Africa and Europe "conveniently" dodging the proverbial bullet.

If Firefox wants to move from the unknown world to Terra, I think we should standardize what planet the browser is humping.

If we standardize on one planet though, what about all the other planets? I contend that if we're going to abandon earth, we should create a layer between the firefox and the planet, you know, instead of just standardizing which planet we're going to use. It may be difficult and time consuming at first -- maybe even a little bit slow -- but then the fox will be able to hump EVERYTHING! Saturn, Mars, Jupiter. It will even be able to hump Uranus -- you name it.

Don't you people have anything better to do with your time?
> Don't you people have anything better to do with your time? If we did, would be be talking about humping planets in Bugzilla? Probably...
This bug is verified WONTFIX, but you might consider changing it to VERIFIED PANDAFIXED. Just a thought.
Are you.... are you all serious? ... for one you obviously dont know what a fox looks like... Or the Earth at that matter.... none of those "Continents" on the Firefox logo are in any way shaped as the ones one Earth, and another, A panda?? what the heck are you talking about. You don't get out much do you? A panda looks in no way like that.... I'm going to go cry now this is so sad...
(In reply to comment #12) You sir, are an idiot. You obviously can't recognize a quite well executed joke. A joke that actually has some merit, none the less. Have a good day, don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out.
