2:20 Our Changing World

'The landscape of fear' is an idea in ecology that suggests fear alone might be enough to change the way prey animals live in and shape their environment.

3:10 Mary Taylor Previte

When Mary Taylor Previte was nine years old she was a girl guide doing what girls guides do, singing songs at troop meetings, earning badges and doing her best to live up to the Guide pledge. But Mary's troop wasn't in the suburbs, Mary was a girl guide at a Japanese Prisoner of War camp in China. She and her siblings were attending a boarding school in China. The day after the Pearl Harbor attack in 1941, the Japanese sent the teachers, students and staff to a prison camp. The adults started a Girl Guides troop in the camp, and gave Mary and her friends a tiny piece of their childhoods. In just a few weeks, Mary will celebrate the 70th of the liberation of that camp.
