"911"安慰犬,纽约市,2001

中文注释：

图中这只金毛是纽约那些不太出名的犬类英雄中的一员，它们帮助人们缓解“911”的恐怖袭击造成的痛苦，被称为“安慰犬”(注)。与搜救犬相仿，安慰犬常前往灾难现场以协助救援工作。据研究表明，当人们爱抚宠物的时候，可以产生降低心率和血压等生理变化。

英文注释：

9/11 Comfort Dog, New York City, 2001

The lesser known of New York's canine heroes, comfort dogs, such as this golden retriever, help soothe those affected by the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Similar to search-and-rescue dogs, comfort dogs travel to disaster scenes to aid relief efforts. Studies show that people experience physiological changes—such as a drop in heart rate and blood pressure—when they pet animals.
