Caption:

This image depicts an oil tanker using a mercantile waterway in Mumbai, India, formerly known as Bombay, to carry its cargo of oil. Water resource developments, including canals, rivers, lakes, and streams, can become breeding grounds for disease carrying vectors such as mosquitoes, which makes the control of these insects a paramount concern, especially for those, who use these bodies of water for business, as was the case here, or pleasure.
