Dutton Animal Book Award

Dutton Animal Book Award was an American literary award established in 1963 by publisher E. P. Dutton to recognize a previously unpublished work of fiction or non-fiction relating to animals.[1] The reward for the winner was a $7,500 to $15,000 advanced against royalties after publication of the book by Dutton.[2] The award was inspired by the success of Gavin Maxwell's Ring of Bright Water (1960), the story of two otters.[3] The award was presented between 1963 and 1969; there was a 6-year hiatus with one more award presented in 1975.

Winners
gollark: I don't think it's an actual *network* issue as much as a "my thing is not performing the right incantations to make the kernel do what I want" issue.
gollark: I found a program which does similar multicasting-y stuff and works fine, but I don't understand what it's actually doing because it's in a very different language with different semantics.
gollark: It's possible that I have some fundamental misunderstanding of how to make the networking stack happy with all this, but the examples I found did basically the same stuff so WHO KNOWS.
gollark: It's going onto my pile of "abandoned until I can find a non-eldritch way to do this" things.
gollark: "Interesting" and highly cursed: Google appear to have implemented some sort of horrible BASIC-y language encoded in YAML for "cloud workflows": https://cloud.google.com/workflows/docs/reference/syntax
