Here's an interesting quote from Lewis Thomas's;
"The Medusa and the snail" it refers to the Beaver/Otter
exhibit at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. A place that
Disney copied from in their early days.
It was recently quoted in John Sawhill's monthly message in
The Nature Conservancy.
"I wanted no part of the science of beavers and otters;
I wanted never to know how they performed their marvels;
I wished no news about the physiology of their breathing,
the coordination of their muscles, their vision,
their endocrine systems, their digestive tracts.
All I asked fore was the full, hairy complexity..... of whole
, intact, beavers and otters in motion."
