Abstract

A great many conservationists may be familiar with the Red-tailed Tropicbird; few may know about the Marine Turtle. This article takes the author into the reader into the world of Vezo fishers who live along the southwest coast of Madagascar and engage in conservation projects involving the Red-tailed Tropicbird and the Marine Turtle. The two case studies reveal that there is no one recipe for conservation success. Uneven incentives for including conservation into local economies and The removable point of the harpoon pierced the carapace of the green turtle Photo: social spheres of exchange have led to patchy results in the conservation of these important species on the island of Madagascar.
