Absolutely, yeah. And I think with some species, groups of species, birds and herps particularly, a lot of private breeders have done a much better job than, than some of the zoo well have both in, in the ways they keep them and in the conservation value, the breeding value of those species. I, over the years, again, not so much in North Carolina, but with London had quite a lot of dealings with private individuals who had, you know, because they were specialists in what they were doing, whether it was, you know, and particularly with smaller species, one or two with hoofstock, with larger mammals as well, but particularly where you’re trying to build up numbers. Some of the private breeders are really quite critical in that no, no zoo, no zoo is gonna keep the numbers that you actually need to maintain, you know, a good genetic stock. So there’s a huge place for private breeders providing two things, providing they have the same objectives as you have at the end of the day and, and also that they’re gonna be financially okay in the long-term future, but very much so that is a, is a good place for private breeders as long as they follow your lines of interest. The adopt a national Park concept seems like a natural for zoos to assist the wild.
