　　Tiger Carrying Cub, India, 1997
　　Photograph by Michael K. Nichols
　　"Jaws that can crush a backbone become a tender conveyance as Sita totes a cub to a new den, a constant chore to safeguard her young from leopards, wild dogs, and other tigers. Hiding cubs well is critical, since she may be away hunting for 24 hours or more. Sita is living proof that this endangered species can flourish if only given enough room and enough prey."
　　
　　—From "Making Room for Wild Tigers," December 1997, National Geographic magazine
　　
　　带着幼崽的老虎 印度 1997年
　　Michael K. Nichols摄
　　
　　“可以咬碎骨头的虎口此刻成了一个温柔的运输工具，Sita带着幼崽到新窝里去，保护孩子，使其免受猎豹、野狗，和其他老虎的伤害仍是它不变的任务。藏好幼崽是至关重要的，因为它可能离开24小时以上去捕猎。Sita很好地证明了这种濒危动物如果得到足够的空间和食物，就会繁衍兴旺下去。”

　　Cash Cow, Quebec, Canada, 1997
　　Photograph by Maggie Steber
　　Quebec is the ’cash cow’ of Canada, many Québécois think, convinced that they pay more taxes to Ottawa, the national capital, than they receive in benefits. Yet even Quebec government studies show that the province receives a net cash flow of at least two billion dollars U.S. from Ottawa, while other studies reckon it to be much higher. Quebec’s dairy farmers are themselves guaranteed a 47 percent national market share for processed milk. Despite such subsidies, support for independence remains strong in the rural French-speaking area.

　　Photograph by Reza
　　"Pike perch seem plentiful at this Kazakh processing plant, but the catch here has fallen sharply in recent years—and that’s not the worst news. The [Caspian Sea’s] sturgeon, ancient fish that survived the transition from dinosaur age to the mammal era, may not survive the transition from communism to free market. The source of 90 percent of the world’s caviar, they are being decimated by poaching and pollution."

One long-range solution is increased automation. A Lockheed TriStar touches down ’hands off’ at Palmdale, California; a time exposure by a remotely operated camera attached to the aircraft’s vertical tail fin blurs city and runway lights."
