So we created a touch pool within the aquarium areas. But we didn’t have people grabbing them. We had them put in little plexiglass boxes so they could look at two feet and move along. And then we’d put it back in and let the starfish crawl out. And so we created that type of an experience where I felt that having that close encounter with an animal or seeing a baby sea lion or helping feed a baby sea lion with a bottle because it failed to nurse or something like that, or it was premature, what a neat experience for a young child to be able to do that and what a bond they would set up for the future. Because, in this day and age, if we don’t strengthen that human-animal bond, well, first of all, the people bond’s a mess now let alone everything else that’s going on in this world, but a people-animal bond is so important for us to protect the world.
