Myrmecology: The Science About Ants
"Did you know a myrmecologist is a scientist that studies ants? This German site is quite extensive, with lots of information for the amateur myrmecologist. If you are ready to raise your own ant colony, you’ll be interested in the recipe for nourishing ant food (egg yolk, yeast, sugar and honey) and instructions on building an artificial ant nest. Your ant colony will live much longer in one of these nests than in a commercial plastic ant farm."

Monterey Bay Aquarium: Focus on Otters
"The history of the sea otter along the Pacific coast has been tumultuous. Once thought to be extinct from excessive nineteenth-century hunting, today’s California sea otters are all ancestors of a family of fifty sea otters that survived along the inaccessible coast of Big Sur. Although their numbers rose to 2,300 in 1995, their population has since started to decline. "And this time, scientists don’t know why. Is the decline temporary or an indication of something more serious?" This fabulous site from the Monterey Bay Aquarium is my sea otter pick of the day!"

Monterey Bay Aquarium: Focus on Penguins
"Penguins are appealing animals. We tend to feel a certain kinship with them. Like us, they’re social and curious, they walk upright and care for their young. Besides, they look like they’re wearing tuxedos. Who, besides us, would be so silly? Best click is the live video cam (from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. P.S.T) of the blackfooted penguins, hatched in an aquarium in New Orleans but native to South Africa. "Watch our exhibit penguins as they hop up on rocks, dive and swim, much like penguins in the wild.""
