To find the maximum likelihood estimate, suppose that, in general, t animals are tagged. Then, of a second sample of size m, r tagged animals are recaptured. We estimate n by the maximizer of the likelihood:

Find the log-likelihood, and then indicate which terms of it would not become zero if you took the derivative to find the MLE of n.
