@import url(/styles/standards_menu.css); Store Contact Us Careers ArcUser Online October - December 2002 Search ArcUser: Outstanding MyCOE Projects Honored More than 2,100 secondary school and university level students in 63 countries used geographic tools to explore ways in which their communities could be made more livable as part of the "My Community, Our Earth (MyCOE): Geographic Learning for Sustainable Development" project. This project, sponsored by the National Geographic Society, the Association of American Geographers, the United Nations Environment Programme, and ESRI emphasized the links between geography and sustainable development. Judges selected 10 outstanding projects and the achievements of these students were recognized at the 22nd Annual ESRI International User Conference. Presentations were made during the plenary session and their projects were displayed as part of "My Community, Our Earth: A Global Showcase of GIS for Sustainable Development" special exhibit. Using geographic tools and methods, students analyzed and documented a wide variety of problems and came up with innovative recommendations. Digital tools, such as GIS software, and more traditional manual methods, such as hand-drawn maps and charts, were used to complete the project. As part of the project, more than 400 volunteer mentors provided assistance to students and schools. The top MyCOE projects looked at many types of challenges facing communities from social problems, such as obtaining housing for squatters to environmental concerns, such as identifying the sources and evaluating the effects of various types of water pollution. After examining these problems, students suggested programs that would improve the quality of life for the community, often through conserving resources and coexisting in harmony with nature.

Trivedi National Geographic On Assignment November 17, 2003 About 15 minutes west of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, just off Interstate 10, the Tiger Truck Stop keeps a 350-pound (160-kilogram) Siberian tiger named Tony. Astonishing as it may seem, exotic big cats are permitted as pets, and in all sorts of moneymaking schemes in the United States, as long as owners abide by federal and state regulations. Periodically these "pets" make news, like the 400-pound (180-kilogram) Siberian-Bengal tiger, Ming, that lived in a Harlem apartment and mauled owner Antoine Yates, or the 24 Bengal tigers seized from New Jersey "tiger lady" Joan Byron-Marasek in Jackson Township. Tiger Truck Stop owner Michael Sandlin kept four tigers until he agreed to give up three of them after the U.S. Department of Agriculture cited him for some violations. He tracked down Mary Lynn Roberts, whose Tiger Haven, in rural Roane County, Tennessee, west of Knoxville, is one of the largest big-cat sanctuaries in the United States, with nearly 200 lions, tigers, leopards, pumas and jaguars on 50 acres (20 hectares).

Contact Us Front Page Home Former Pet Tigers Find Home in Tennessee Shelter Sasha came from a drive-through safari in Bastrop, Texas; Dolly, from a roadside zoo in Columbia, South Carolina. The roadside zoo was shut down immediately and a frantic search began to place the cats. Within hours, Roberts was there. "He's still small for a male lion, but as malnourished and as small as he was when we first got him, we're all surprised that he looks as good as he does," Roberts said. Another critical case was Tsavo, from a private owner who couldn't cope with the baby lion's increasingly painful skin condition. Finally, the owner called Roberts. Sudden Surgery Caring for the cats is a full-time job. Roberts lives at the sanctuary. She works with 12 staffers. "They work around the clock. I don't know if they ever sleep. They really live for their animals," said Edward Ramsay, a big cat specialist at the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine, in Knoxville, and a consulting veterinarian for the Knoxville Zoo. Ramsay is a frequent visitor to Tiger Haven. For the past five years Cimba has suffered a recurring uterine infection. A hysterectomy seemed to be the only hope to save her.
