Would solving this beautifully sculptural wooden puzzle help keep your brain cells from going extinct?

I love the texture and grain of wooden products. This surely would be a fun item to have on a desk or a coffee table to occupy friends and foe alike. But why made in China? I can even that quality is lacking just by looking at the one included photo. What a shame. We have such great craftspeople right here. Let's remember them!

Looks OK but I probably wouldn't get it. Also, as an evolutionary biologist I have to ask what this has to do with Darwin? Sure, he knew about dinosaurs but he's not really associated with them. Maybe if it looked like a finch, or better yet a mockingbird (look it up). Name something else after Darwin!

I like puzzles, but this doesn't look at all interesting. A puzzle named after Darwin ought to be intriguing.

I will never vote for anything that is made in China and I just don't like it.

Yes and no. Yes to everything about it save the Made in China detail. Great to look at and who doesn't love a challenging puzzle? Just get it made here and I will buy it.

I would love to have this not only as a conversational piece but for a home decoration. Very interesting! So what that it is made in China? Very few things are in todays market.

Even though it is made in China, it would take a brain to do this one. Good for them. I only know a few people that good do this one.

Wooden puzzles are always a nice little item for family rooms, cabins, etc. This is a unique design.Regarding the "Made in China" comments, I agree that I would much rather have American made products...but we are a country that wants Made in America products at Made in China prices with Made in America wages. I would consider this product for a few dollars. I would not purchase it at $25-$30 or more.

I would like to buy a nicer-quality version of this by a craftsman making a living wage, not a child in China.

Am not buying handmade from China. Make it in US.

Kinda cool but isn't there someone in Brooklyn that can make this? There's gotta be some hipster you can hire to make these and make them much better!

Except for made in China, this is a great additional to the world of puzzles.

Not bad idea, but might be more visually stimulating if different types of wood were used. Also, wish it were made in the USA.
HOO
Honestly, you people who say made in China, won't buy, probably buy a ton of stuff from China so...I understand the want to buy local and stuff, and want to also but still you don't have to put it so far out there.

Made in China... How was wood sourced?
