A talk with Martin and Chris Kratt: meet the hosts of Kratts' Creatures
Article Abstract:
Martin and Chris Kratt reveal that they became interested in wildlife as children when they explored their backyard and the woods they visited on vacation. Their love for animals grew into a TV program for children featuring wild animals. Questionnaires from children helped them develop a program that kids enjoy. They believe that children can learn about animals by reading and visiting zoos and aquariums. Children can help to save wildlife by helping people to understand the importance of conservation.

Cryptic creatures
Article Abstract:
Tiny blennies and gobies are are some of the many fascinating fish that live in western Caribbean coral-reef communities. These creatures make up over 60% of the coral-reef fish community and dwell in tide pools, coral, grass, sand, and other habitats. Though largely overlooked in scientific research these fish can offer information concerning biodiversity, small habitats, and long-term preservation of coral-reef communities.
