The politics driving extinction in the Galápagos Islands (2005)

Survival of the Fittest (2005): A violent dispute between fishermen and park rangers is threatening the Galápagos 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.
