I come from a family of teachers. Really good teachers.

We also have engineers, but this is about teachers.

Aunt Fern, Aunt Martha, Aunt Pauline, Aunt Vonda, Mom

My Mom'a four older sisters taught, 

so four Aunts and an Uncle all outstanding teachers.

The kind that talk about school even in the summer!

Enough so that I was pretty sure I didn't want to be a teacher.

But then I married a coach/teacher and became a teacher.

Now after forty five years of teaching ...

I have determined that I was a pretty good teacher.

You see I do believe in angels. I do.

And if at anytime I wasn't a good teacher,

I believe one of my angels would have nudged me back into place.

So, I guess I had to be a teacher.

So there.

The Diversity of Primates

Primates share an evolutionary history, yet their adaptations are remarkably diverse. From powerful great apes to agile monkeys, different species have developed distinct body structures, social behaviours and ways of navigating their environments.

Forward-facing eyes and grasping hands help many primates judge distances and handle objects. Their diversity reveals how evolution shapes survival.
