Teenagers are using social media in a plethora of really positive ways. There are groups, there are clubs out there to address anything that a teen has interest with. I see a lot of kids facing challenges with depression, anxiety, and they're able to connect. I think it's incredibly important that we're using social media appropriately. We're seeing teens architect their Instagram photos using filters to create images that are not aligned with who they really are, but they're generating likes. It's a social currency and it's addictive. Sometimes teens make bad decisions and they can post things on social media that they don't realize that exists forever, as adults. Employers look at social media and what are you posting on there? Kids aren't thinking about those kinds of things. So we do want to supervise our child's social media usage. Simply asking them what their social media represents, the values that they want represented and to ask them about the content that they post. Why is it important? What's interesting about it? Coming from a place of genuine, authentic interest, right? Not concern, just interest. We start that conversation. We keep it open ended. We keep it consistent. We check in often and we invite that conversation.

[0:42] It lives in one place on earth, the Annamite mountains, along the border of Laos and Vietnam.
[1:08] With no Saola in captivity and poaching pressure still intense, it is critically endangered.
[1:12] Now the first step to finding Saola is to find the remaining individuals in the wild, and it's not going to be easy at all. The forest where they live covers more than 25,000 square kilometers. That's bigger than the state of New Jersey. It's worse than searching for a needle in a haystack.
