Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Animals of North America The most natural supposition is, that the all-wise Creator placed each species where it was permanently destined to live; and that from these different centres of creation, combinations have so multiplied between contiguous regions, as to form the various races of animal life. When we find a country possessing a group or groups of animals not found elsewhere; we may at once set down that as being the centre of a peculiar creation. In the location of many species, nature has placed various limits, and the spaces occupied by them are most unequal. For example: the Kangaroo and Ornithorhyncus are confined to New Holland; the Grizzly Bear to the Rocky Mountains; the Dodo, now extinct, to the Mauritius; whilst the Swallow, the Crow, and the Fox, extend to every known region. The principal cause of limitation is doubtless connected with the unequal tem perature. Of localities; certain species which thrive in one climate, perishing under the influence of another - also the nature of vegetation in one country, and the absence of it in another, - as in the Polar regions, - confining to the former the larger beasts of prey, dependent on herbivorous animals as their food, with the exception of, .in the latter, those that subsist on fish. The number of Species increase as we near the tropics, and there it is where Nature has been most lavish in the diversity of life, beauty of color, strangeness of form, and greatness of proportion. The present total number of living Species which has been satisfactorily made out and ascertained, exceeds, according to Agassiz.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life Zones and Crop Zones of the United States For ten years the Biological Survey (and its predecessor, the Divi Sion of Ornithology and Mammalogy) has had small parties in the field traversing the public domain for the purpose of studying the geographic distribution of our native land animals and plants and mapping the boundaries of the areas they inhabit. The present report is intended to explain the relations of this work to practical agriculture and to Show the results thus far attained - it does not deal with other investigations carried on by the Survey. It was early learned that North America is divisible into seven transcontinental belts or life zones and a much larger number of minor areas or faunas, each characterized by particular associations of animals and plants. It was then suspected that these same zones and areas, up to the northern limit of profitable agriculture, are adapted to the needs of particular kinds or varieties of cultivated crops, and this has since been fully established. When, therefore, the natural life zones and areas, seemingly of interest only to the naturalist, were found to be natural crop belts and areas, they became at once of the highest importance to the agriculturist. A map show ing. Their position and boundaries, so far as ascertained at the close of the field season of 1897, accompanies this report, and lists of the more Important crops of each belt and its principal subdivisions are here for the first time published. The matter relating to the native animals and plants has been reduced to a fragmentary outline, for the reason that this branch of the subject is of comparatively little inter est to the farmei and fruit grower.
