I don't think so. Supersymmetry, in which Dark Matter candidates automatically arise, is a very beautiful theory because it underlies the highest symmetry which is compatible to some strong physical constraints (e.g. the S-Matrix is based on a local, relativistic quantum field theory in four dimensional space).
However, Dark Matter candidates are only possible possible if R-Parity is conserved, which is just whishful thinking.

So, we have solar powered hornets? Now all we need: Sharks with lasers!
