April 2005 A violent dispute between fishermen and park rangers is threatening the Galapagos islands' wildlife. Some species have already disappeared. Throwing molotov cocktails and beating park rangers with clubs, hoards of angry fishermen storm the rangers' headquarters. "The rangers have passed laws to cause the fishing sector to disappear," complains spokesman Rogelio Huaycho. The fishermen claim they're locked in a battle for survival with the wildlife on the islands. But rangers are dismayed that fishermen are using their disproportionate political influence to overturn conservation edicts. "I don't think things have been any worse ever in the National Park," laments former Park director Fernando Ortiz. The first species are already disappearing, rangers have been attacked and anti poaching patrols stopped. The worry is that things will get worse. As Oritz fears: "I think conservation will be history."

If the fisherman are worried about thier lively hood maybe try to use your boats for tourist fishing tours and concentrate on tourism of your beautiful island. Do you not see that your lively hood will come to an end if you keep raping the waters.What are your raping it for , so the Asian can get it up! Send them Viagra...

Do the Asian men really have that much problem with an erection that our waters and forests have to be raped to help them get it up... Did they hear of Viagra...

No one can blame the fishermen. Look at their government. It should be taking a more authoritative stance in protecting the unique environments of the Galápagos. Much of the problem derives from tourism. Help the problem by not travelling to the Galápagos Islands.
