    Hey guys, love the series so far after episode 1. I work as a consultant to the UN on biodiversity conservation projects, especially snow leopards and their prey (ibex...). I have worked quite a bit in Kyrgyzstan the past few years, even spending a couple nights in a yurt in Karakol. Your travel experience looks like my typical work trip! 😂 I'm trying to work with the government toward a vision of awesome hunting, with equitable benefits for local communities and outfitters that work to manage and harvest game species sustainably. I'd love to speak with you in detail sometime about your experience, as I work to bridge the gap between American hunters and the amazing Central Asian hunting opportunity. I look forward to the rest of the series!
