Many people contributed to the writing of The Language of Animals in 1995 and producing The Animal Communication Project.

My wife, Karen Hart, formerly a professor of biology at Peninsula College, and my son Robbie Hart offered many helpful suggestions.

The Animal Communication Project represents a synthesis of thousands of pieces of information in the form of research papers, telephone interviews with researchers, first-hand observations, and e–mail messages, not to mention popular books, text books, popular magazine articles and videos.
