I think the, the thing that gives me hope is, is starting to really make some headway with zoos and zoo clinicians starting to, are continuing, continuing to develop partnerships for conservation locally and globally and, and trying to look at medicine a little bit more broadly and, and trying to understand some of the conservation challenges that are going on at the environmental level. You know, some of the, the, the work we’re doing in Punta San Juan, the, the work on the dolphins in Sarasota, that’s been an ongoing study for more than 50 years to understand the, the biology of bottlenose dolphins in the Gulf of Mexico. So I think those, those things give me hope, the fact that it’s becoming more integrated. The, the challenge is still, you know, what impacts humans are having on the environment. What, what are some of the factors that are leading to population declines in, in the wild. But I, you know, some of the things that we’re, some of the efforts, efforts that are being undertaken to, to help understand the biology is really gives me hope about where we may be going in the future.
