They're going to negotiate differently with you than...

a 20,000 acre piece of land that's owned by some old man that's a native.

And he's like, I just want to protect it.

He's not trying to make a fortune out of it.

And so he'll sell it to you cheaper.

And he'll be like, I love you guys.

And so every piece of land is different.

But what I can tell you is that

We're protecting almost, we're crossing 150,000 acres soon.

We have several thousand donors and that's what allows us to have boats patrolling this forest, keeping everything safe.

And so, you know, it's so funny because the difference between being the kid that wants it and then the person that did it.

And it's like, we wanted to make an organization that wasn't like the organizations.

We didn't want to be like when people give a dollar, you go, where's it going?

You give a dollar to a big wildlife organization, you're like, what project is this going to?

And it's like, this is going to making rangers, gasoline, boats, tuna cans, boots on the ground.

And it's like, they can come and see it all in action.

And so I don't know the price per acre, but what I do know is that very small amounts of help from a lot, a lot of people are going a really long way.

Amen.

And we drank right next to each other.

Everybody talks to me about it.
