EDITORS COMMENTS
In the aftermath of Hurricane Maria, a heartbreaking scene unfolds in Maunabo, Puerto Rico. This powerful photograph captures the resilience and suffering of a chained dog lying on a rock amidst the destruction left behind by the devastating storm. The image, taken on January 27,2018, serves as a stark reminder of the immense impact natural disasters can have on both humans and animals. The once vibrant neighborhood now lies in ruins with debris scattered everywhere. Rubbish litters the ground while damaged homes bear witness to Mother Nature's fury. Amidst this chaotic mess stands an innocent domesticated animal, bound by chains that symbolize its captivity. Surrounded by fallen palm trees and shattered infrastructure, this aerial view offers a unique perspective on the extent of destruction caused by Hurricane Maria. The creative use of stone as shelter for this helpless creature further emphasizes its vulnerability against such catastrophic forces. As we gaze upon this poignant snapshot devoid of human presence, it becomes evident that nature's wrath knows no bounds. It is our responsibility to ensure that all living beings are protected during times of crisis like these – to provide comfort and aid when they need it most. Photographer Alvin Baez has captured not just an image but also an urgent call for compassion towards those affected by natural disasters worldwide. Let us remember this photograph as a reminder to be prepared and proactive in safeguarding our communities from future devastation while extending empathy towards all creatures who suffer alongside us in times of adversity.
