EDITOR’S NOTE: John Potter’s cartoon, “On Borrowed Ground,” will appear regularly at Yellowstonian. The name for it, Potter says, “is based on the traditional concept of us not owning the Earth, but rather we are borrowing it from the seventh generation down the line.” Also coming soon, a profile on Potter, who is not only an accomplished painter of natural landscapes and wildlife, but a former award-winning newspaper columnist whose work was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize. His cartoon is copyrighted and appears exclusively at Yellowstonian. If you wish to republish, drop us a note here. —Todd Wilkinson
