At the height of the H1N1 scare last week, many Americans wanted stronger surveillance at the borders to prevent the spread of new diseases by foreign travelers - but there has been comparatively little attention paid to the live-wildlife trade.

Location: Premium. Lowell is the geographic center of River House life. Quincy and Leverett are seconds away, and Winthrop, Eliot, and Kirkland are sneaky close once you pick up that Lowell-residents-only backdoor swipe access.
