MAKE A DIFFERENCE!Help Save Shark and Mangrove Habitat at Bimini islands

[bluesky]

Bimini, Bahamas - The mangrove habitats of these islands is the location of one of the most important nursery grounds for Lemon Sharks in the North West Atlantic and home to the extremely rare Bimini Boa. Now the Hilton Hotels Corporation and Capo Group are chopping it all down in order to build a golf course and hotel.
Please Help Save the Future of Sharks at Bimini island
------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------
Bimini island, located just 50 miles from Miami is being destroyed by current project named Bimini Bay Resort. This development threatens biological important marine ecosystems of Bimini. Mangrove areas which serve as nursery for countless species of fish and of course LEMON sharks can be destroyed by senseless development.
Also in Bimini there is Biological Field Station which is the world?s longest-running shark research station, most of the world?s shark biologists have trained there.

hurry! save the only-slightly-radioactive bimini boa (with 3 heads and 5 legs)!

the gov't should be made to return it to the pre-atomic bomb test condition before selling it for development, oh but there's no "nuke-away" (YES, A MORK AND MINDY REFERENCE)!

hey, i guess the animals surviving a direct nuclear blast means that we'll survive armageddon! another reson to celebrate

Honey, have another martini and then google 'Bikini Atol'.

You're about 7,000 miles off course Giligan.

by heavens you are right - i apologise and admit my wrongness

Bimini (bĭm?ə?nē) is a district of the Bahamas comprised of a chain of islands, the largest islands are: North Bimini and South Bimini. North Bimini is about seven miles (11 km) long and 700 feet (210 m) wide; its main settlement is Alice Town, a collection of shops, restaurants, and bars surrounding a single road known as "The King's Highway." South Bimini houses an airstrip and two hotels, and offers a quiet alternative to the slow bustle of North Bimini. (wikipedia)

if its already built up, then why bother?

they're nuke-ing far more square miles for panther-boy's nature part in bonifay
