Caye Caulker video; Cocos, Cycas

Post by TerdalFarm » Sun Jan 23, 2011 8:17 pm

I stumbled upon this video while preparing for a class.
I am posting a link here as it features "Chocolate" Heredia. He is the man who took so much pride in his dwarf Cocos I posted a photo of on Barb's thread. Most of the interview with him on this amateur video has him standing by his huge Cycas, which he planted in the 1970s from a 1 qt/litre size. He is justifiably proud of it. The Cocos I shared a photo of him with does make a cameo, but I doubt anyone but me would catch it.

Most of the video is about manatees, so unless you like them, skip it.

Chocolate is a great guy!
Every country could use at least one of him.
Certainly deserving of award for protecting 9000 acres for the manatees.

Thanks, great pics...could almost smell the BBQ

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.
