A farmer tries to help one of his cows dying for lack of pasture that was destroyed by this year's flood of the Amazon River in Careiro da Varzea near Manaus September 4, 2009. After the worst flood in a decade, the local government estimates that some 14,000 cows have died for lack of pasture that breeders weren't able to plant in time, with more than three months of the dry season still to go.
