High Altitude Primates
by Nanda B. Grow Sharon Gursky-Doyen Alicia KrztonThe basic goal of the volume is to compile the most up to date research on how high altitude affects the behavior, ecology, evolution and conservation status of primates, especially in comparison to lowland populations. Historically, the majority of primate studies have focused on lowland populations. However, as the lowlands have been disappearing, more and more primatologists have begun studying populations located in higher altitudes. High altitude populations are important not only because of their uniqueness, but also because they highlight the range of primate adaptability and the complex variables that are involved in primate evolution. These populations are good examples of how geographic scales result in diversification and/or speciation. Yet, there have been very few papers addressing how this high altitude environment affects the behavior, ecology, and conservation status of these primates.

High Water at Catfish Bend (Catfish Bend, Book #4)
by Ben L. BurmanIt is the year of the most terrible flood in the history of the Mississippi, and five animals have climbed onto a small flood mound built by neighboring farmers to save their horses and cattle. The animals are Doc Raccoon, later the Mayor of Catfish Bend; Judge Black, the motto-quoting black snake who has become a vegetarian to clear the snake family's bad name; J.C., the sporty, fast-talking red-haired fox from Memphis; the silly rabbit; and the gloomy frog, whose only joy is directing the Indian Bayou Frog Glee Club. The black snake, when his lower nature grips him, is tempted to eat the frog; the fox is hungry for the rabbit. Unlike most warring humanity, they suddenly realize that if they are to survive, they must unite against the common enemy, the flood. With the high water over at last, they set out for New Orleans to demand that the riverbanks be made safe for wild animals. The strange and perilous adventures that befall them reveal that animals have much the same problems these days as human beings.

The Highest Tide: A Novel
by Jim LynchMiles O'Malley, 13-year-old insomniac, naturalist, worshipper of Rachel Carson, and dweller on the mud flats of Skookumchuck Bay, at the South end of Puget Sound near Olympia, Washington, is the irresistible center of The Highest Tide. He says, "I learned early on that if you tell people what you see at low tide they'll think you're exaggerating or lying when you're actually just explaining strange and wonderful things as clearly as you can" and "People usually take decades to sort out their view of the universe, if they bother to sort at all. I did my sorting during one freakish summer in which I was ambushed by science, fame and suggestions of the divine." And what a summer he has! Miles, who is licensed to collect marine specimens for money, slips into his kayak late one night when he can't sleep and begins his exploratory rounds. What he sees is not the usual collectibles. He hears a deep exhale, a sound of release, and comes eye to eye with a giant squid. But, there are no giant squid in Puget Sound or anywhere around it--and when they are seen by humans, they are always dead. His discovery is confirmed by Professor Kramer, a local biologist and Miles's friend. Television cameras arrive, everyone wants to interview this small-for-his-age but very smart boy and the events of the summer begin to unfold. Jim Lynch has an ability to tell a tale that glows on every page. He knows everything that lives in or near the water by name and habit. This knowledge and his sense of wonder at the natural world brings the reader very close to his story, both in its setting and its characters. One early morning Miles says, "...the water was so clear I could see coon-stripe shrimp ... and the bottomless bed of white clam shells ... Those shells, as unique and timeless as bones, helped me realize that we all die young, that in the life of the earth, we are houseflies, here for one flash of light." Such insights are perfectly natural coming from Miles, whose interests are not garden-variety. He has a mad crush on the mixed-up 18-year-old girl next door, a randy age-mate named Phelps, and a deep friendship with Florence, the elderly woman his mother refers to as "a crazy witch." Florence is a psychic of sorts and her powers come into play when she predicts an extremely high tide on a certain day. All of these relationships and what is happening between Miles's parents are part of this event-filled, life-changing summer.
