Wouldn't it be nice if people did not come down here, fall in love with the place, and then start trying to push their own agenda.

Turtles have been a food source here for hundreds of years. Turtles are not exported. They are simply a food source for local people.

Maybe some BVIslanders should come to your country and tell you how to manage it.

Over and out.

I agree with everything stated (actually "Over and out" is not correct). Culture is culture and I think that it should be respected up to a certain line.

For example, what I have recently read about rape in India is abhorrent.

But the BVI tradition of taking turtles for food, the number that are realistically taken and the fact that none are exported makes this a no-brainer.
