The session, one of several to be conducted under Sandals Resorts International’s ‘Save the Parrotfish, Save Our Islands’ campaign, allowed attendees to discuss the issue of the declining parrotfish population and share ideas on the possible steps to be taken to regulate the fishing industry and save the parrotfish. Kitson shared information on the important role of the parrotfish in protecting and preserving our coastal and marine resources and fielded questions from fishermen, students, marine wardens and members of the Reef Keepers Club.
