- Comments: IN THE HEART OF THE AMAZON FOREST Soaked to the skin, zoologist Henry Walter Bates lies shivering in a canoe, waiting for dawn, hoping the pattering sound is not a prowling black jaguar. At least he had had a fascinating morning, collecting specimens of insects never recorded before. His battered notebooks tell his story - an incredible eleven-year adventure in the Amazon jungle, hunting fish and precious turtle's eggs
