TY - JOUR PY - 2000// TI - Conservation biology. Galápagos station survives latest attack by fishers JO - Science A1 - Ferber, D. SP - 2059 EP - 2061 VL - 290 IS - 5499 N2 - Researchers at the Darwin Research Station are attempting to put the pieces back together after a festering dispute over fishing quotas turned violent between 13 and 17 November. The fuse that set off the most recent conflagration was an annual 50-ton limit on spiny lobsters that local fishers reached barely halfway into the 4-month season. Unruly bands of fishers laid siege to the station and the park service, blocked roads and offices, tore down the island's telephone antenna, and destroyed research records.
