It seems to me that the authorities would WANT us to disturb the seagulls from eating the hatchlings.

I say we should write a letter condemning this barbaric practice.

As to David's question, I'm not sure how they would close Culebrita exactly. Would they post a guard?

Well, now that I think of it, I was at Culebrita a couple year's ago on my friend's catamaran. We were boarded by a five armed military-type personnel who searched us for "human trafficking".

Yeah, right. Most human traffickers take a break at Culebrita to do some snorkeling and sunbathing.

We figured that it must have been some kind of training exercise. Or maybe they were to chicken to harass ACTUAL smugglers because those might be too dangerous, so they filled their daily quota on people like us.
