While working in the field, he kept careful notes in his journals, which would be transformed into his many published books. "Carr fashioned poetry out of sheer exu- berance, and he animated natural history like no other writer before him," said Harvard zoologist E.O. Wilson. Carr animated nature for his five children as well, and always found answers for their many questions. Growing up in the Carr fam- ily meant tending to some unusual pets, in- cluding a 300-pound alligator and Jasper, an alligator snapping turtle that weighed more than 90 pounds. Carr dedicated his life to preserving wild Florida and its native creatures. Carr said of preservation: "If this difficult saving is done, it will (be done) because man is the creature who preserves things that stir him ... This work will take staunch people."

WUFT-TV, Channel 5 celebrates the life and work of Archie Carr with the premiere of "Archie Carr: A Naturalist in Florida," a one-hour documentary that will be broad- cast tonight at 8 p.m. While Carr is known around the world as the "father of sea turtle research," he also pioneered the tudy of Florida's less appreci- ated residents, from tree frogs that sing about sex to the snake that slithers up a pine tree in a ribbon of red and black. An internationally renowned zoologist, Carr (1909-1987) roamed the state's semi- tropical expanses and researched its vast wildlife for more than 60 years. The program's stunning visuals of wild Florida and digitally-mastered stereo soundtrack, combined with readings from Carr's published books and articles, chronicle his life's work in Florida - a volume of work that enriched the lives of his students, colleagues, family, and the public. The talent of this award-winning author brings the rich ecology of Florida to life. "Archie was a poet. He had the extra sen- sitivity that a poet has of seeing something or experiencing something in a heightened way," said Carr's wife Marjorie, a prominent environmentalist who died October 10. "It's just that Archie wrote his poetry in prose." Carr entered UF as an English major in 1931, but ended up with a doctorate in zool-
