"The flag goes with the foul landscape, and our dialect muffles the drum. In the Interior we'll nourish the most cynical prostitution. We'll massacre logical rebellions. To the spiced and sodden countries! - In the service of the most monstrous exploitations, industrial or military. Farewell here, no matter where. Voluntary conscripts we'll possess a fierce philosophy: ignorant of science, wily for our comforts: let the world go hang. That's true progress. Forward - march!" --Rimbaud

Another Species in Danger

Do No Evil – Many animals are said to define true wilderness, but the best candidate is arguably the wolverine. The reason isn't so much its legendary ferocity or even the remoteness of its habitat. It's the fact that the wolverine is so intolerant of human disturbance.
