And plus I had our veterinarian from our zoo and a veterinarian from Omaha and Lynn Kramer from Dallas plus the three veterinarians that we had in the field. I’ve got a picture of five elephants in one shot all knocked down that we’re having to treat, keep cool, keep the dosages right, get ’em loaded up on trucks, truck to the other national park where we had the boma. The logistics were incredible. And you know, my job was to make sure that the transponders got put in keeping track of the records on the animals and things like this and photographing. And originally, because of the fact that they had been imported before out of Swaziland, that part of the permit we were exempted from. And we had met with the permit office. I mean, we did everything you could to make sure that we had all the bases covered and did this with a chance that we would not end up in court with the lawsuit, but the legal department within the US Fish and Wildlife Service Department knew that there was a pretty good chance, no matter what, that they were gonna get sued for issuing the permit. So the only thing that they felt that was lacking was to redo the environmental assessment they had done 12, 13 years ago about bringing elephants into the country, which has nothing to do with the zoos per se.
