So I think it’s very successful, but it’s not gonna save the a hundred thousand animals that we have. Maybe we’ll do a thousand animals at the most. Read More
On that same vein, just do you have an opinion on these new quote unquote breakthroughs of bringing back the mammoth?… Read More
And in, in New Zealand a lot of animals have been reintroduce reptiles and, and things have been re obviously they don’t have mammals but birds and have been re-introduced and reil. So I think zoos have been very successful in doing that. You know, obviously some we haven’t done. Read More

Why didn’t zoos ever implement a major elephant national breeding program?… Read More
Or have the majority of wild spaces been turned into managed wild zoos?… Read More
I can’t really, you know, they see, we track where elephants are when they, those elephants leave and destroy somebody’s crop. That’s a big problem. And all the lions in Africa, there’s a lot of people working on different ways to manage those. The lion group in, in Tanzania is… Read More
