Communication--the ability to send and receive information. Animals communicate in a variety of ways: sound, color, scent, touch, facial expressions, sight, body language, and chemicals. Explores behavior of red-winged blackbirds, ants, honeybees, wolves, and horses to illustrate communication patterns. Suggests that perhaps observing and understanding animal behavior can lead to better communication among humans.
