For us, one thing that was so deeply fascinating, I think it was something like 242 accredited zoos in this country. 750 million people visit zoos annually, which is more than the five major sporting events combined. Wow. The way in which zoos... It's like the 80-20 rule. There's five or 10 that contribute the majority of the income that cover most of the Mizzous.

And they run like entertainment complexes, like amusement parks. And very little money goes back. into conservation. Now, there's a lot of zoos that are doing great stuff. And I think the things that we're learning about is the educational value of zoos for kids is no longer as what they intended it to be.

I think there's great things that they do, but there's nothing proven around zoos are educational facilities for animals.

But Joe's daughter's grandkids will still see orcas at SeaWorld. Yeah. Do you think so? Yeah. Well, they live a long time. They live a long time. Maybe not granddaughters. Okay. But I say it more. I have little boys. I have a four-year-old and a one-year-old. And I think it's particularly interesting to kind of go through this experience because they're obsessed with animals. And you're kind of...

educating them on these kind of moral issues surrounding animals, the anthropomorphic characters that are created to describe the feelings and where they should live and how they should feel. And kids relate with them in some form of a bridge to humanity, I believe. And you ask this fundamental question when you go to the zoo, hey, where did all the animals come from?

No one really begs to think that question.

But the zoo thing, I mean, you're into that. You get emotional on this. And I am. And what's really cool about this kind of medium that we're in, we have access to all this information and all these people over large decades of work in conservation and zoos and PETA and legislation, laws. It's really – I just love the idea of synthesizing this information to a point in today's context, which is –

Yeah, when you go to a zoo, no one seems to ask where the animals come from. It is a very simple idea that many people miss the point of when they go there. Now, I'm not anti-zoo totally either, and I have no real position or credibility to also suggest that. But I do think I'm interested in asking those questions of what we can do to make these institutions better.
