JT: My name is John Terborgh, I¿m a professor in the Dick University School of the Environment, in Durham North Carolina, and my field is tropical ecology. I found the best place in the world to do tropical ecology and nment, in Durham North Carolina, and my field is tropical ecology. I found the best place in the world to do tropical ecology and that is right here at the Cocha Cashu biological station in Peru¿s Manu National Park. The station has been here for about 30 years and there¿ve been hundreds of investigators who¿ve come and gone and written Ph.D Theses and books and articles and through all that effort we¿ve learned a great deal about the natural history and biology of the forest and its animal inhabitants - and yet there¿s still a great deal more we have to learn some of the big mysteries are still unresolved, for example whyare there so many species here? Just within this park for example there are almost a thousand species of birds, that¿s several hundred more than occurr in all of the United States including Alaska and Hawaii, and so scientists are naturally interested in why there are so many here and so few in other places, and that¿s just one of the big questions about the tropics. There are over 200 species of mammals, including 13 species of primates that live in the forest right around us and the number of tree species goes into the thousands, and so the richness of wildlife and nature here is really incomparable, I think there¿s not another formally protected area anywhere in the world that has as much biological wealth within it as the Manu National Park. 1.39.05 - 1.40.05 JN: And we¿re right in the center of the research area right now, could you just and then we¿ll go for a little walk, this is where they eat, what are these buidings? JT: We have a very simple research site here, it¿s very remote and so we can¿t indulge in a lot of the amenities that research stations tend to take on when they¿re closer to cities - We have three simple wooden buildings that we constructed ourself from material obtained from nearby, fallen logs that we¿ve sawed into boards and thatched roof that we¿ve traded with our Native American neighbors who live upstream, wo their buildings area all thatched, and yet we find it¿s a very comfortable place to be, we have a dining hall, we have a set of offices, we have two libraries, we have a conference room, and so we¿re not bad off JN: You have a phone! 1.40.05 - 1.40.31 JT: We even now, this year only lately, we have a sattellite phone, but we¿ve had a two-way radio for a long time. JN: Well, let¿s go for a little walk here. And Leo, how would you like to.. This is the first time that I¿ve been to a... (Notes truncated)
