Vibration and animal communication: A review

American Zoologist,  Nov 2001  by Hill, Peggy S M

<< Page 1  Continued from page 6.  Previous | Next

"That is why the old Indian still sits upon the earth instead of propping himself up and away from its life-giving forces. For him, to sit or lie upon the ground is to be able to think more deeply and to feel more keenly; he can see more clearly into the mysteries of life and come closer in kinship to other lives about him . . . " (Standing Bear, 1933).

I From the Symposium Vibration as a Communication Channel presented at the Annual Meeting of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology, 3-7 January 2001, at Chicago, Illinois.
