THE NORTH RIDING PROJECT

Though [the DMZ] may be a strange and inhospitable place for humans, it is anything but for flotillas of Siberian cranes and hordes of brown bears, musk deer, and the goatlike Amur gorals, who flourish in what is for them a sanctuary, a gun-free, human-free, four-kilometre-wide swath between the two great fences.  The creatures cannot be accurately counted, but they are there, munching and fluttering and preening under the gun sights of thousands, oblivious to all the anger and ideology swirling around them.
