The connection between Uexküll and Leopold is especially evident in Leopold’s descriptions of animal behaviour that he presents in the first part of his seminal work, <em>A Sand County Almanac</em>. In this work specifically, Leopold illustrates the biosemiotic processes described by Uexküll, and does so with a purpose: to reshape our understanding of the biotic community as a place of semiotic interaction.}, number={1/2}, journal={Sign Systems Studies}, author={Potter, Rebecca C.}, year={2016}, month={Jul.}, pages={111–127} }
