I think there’s a role for every zoo regardless of size, in conservation. It’s just picking your efforts and determining what you can make the contribution to. There is in Wheaton, Illinois, a teeny tiny little park district zoo called the Cosley Zoo. It’s largely an assortment of native animals and farm animals and the benefit of the places is that you can do it in half an hour, or you can do it in half a day, depending on who you are and how many kids you have with you. And you can get up close to the animals. They took it upon themselves to offer their facilities and services for the Illinois and Midwestern endangered Blanding’s turtle and said, we’ll serve as a headstart place for these endangered turtles. You bring us the eggs or bring us hatchlings. We’ll either incubate and hatch the eggs, or we’ll take the hatchlings that you have.
