" . . . I can hardly meet a wild bird or beast even now without renewed wonder at . . . his instant response to every delicate impression, as if each moment brought a new message from earth or heaven and he must not miss it . . ."-William LongHow Animals Talk and Other Pleasant Studies of Birds and Beasts (1919), is a classic report on the author's pioneering research. A dedicated naturalist, Long was the first to challenge conventional research based on data into animal intelligence. During decades of field work he focused on the telepathic ways animals communicate in the wild.
