Blologist is monitoring the population of a rare species of Jackelope. The initial population size was 590 jackelopes. After only 2 year(s), a new count was taken revealing 695 jackelopes. Assuming the population of jackelopes is best modeled with an exponential function, estimate the number of jackelopes in the count taken after a total of 5 years. 2951 jackelopes. (round to the nearest whole number)
