Grasping razor limestone ledges over the South China Sea, a Palawan bird nest hunter wields his bamboo spear to dislodge stubborn swiftlet nests that were created with avian saliva and are used in gourmet soups.

A fistful of squirming bloodworms remind harvesters on the Bay of Fundy to be wary of the sharp, excitable beak-like proboscis that can draw human blood and help defend against thousands of teeming sub-seabed creatures. Timing their backbreaking work in rhythmic syncopation with the daily tides, Nova Scotian diggers can export their muddy bounty to a global sports fishing industry where they are, per pound, the most valuable natural resource of any North American marine species.
