英文注释:

"Get rich quick—that's the fantasy of fortune hunters who in recent years have swarmed into the Ankarana Nature Reserve in search of sapphires. Besides hunting lemurs and other endangered species to feed themselves, these miners have stripped and scoured the land, increasing soil erosion and damaging the watershed."

—From "Restoring Madagascar," February 1999, National Geographic magazine
