(Reuters) - Amazon land activist Deurival Santiago pauses during an interview in the city of Altamira, in the Amazon state of Para, December 12, 2005. Activists like Santiago, who has the look of a hunted man, often protect peasant sellers in jungle areas where the government still has little control. That puts them in conflict with large-scale loggers, ranchers and land speculators pushing into an area of Para state known as the Terra do Meio, or Middle Land. It's the main battleground in the fight to slow destruction of the world's largest rain forest. Picture taken December 12, 2005. (Andrew Hay/Reuters)
