I am writing curriculum for middle school science teachers. What I am 
attempting to do is compare very large animals heartbeats to very small 
animals. I have searched the web for this info and can't find it. I have 
also emailed the Columbus zoo, but they have not responsed. Do you have a 
source for this info?
