Laguna de los Micos, a crucial marine ecosystem in northern Honduras, is experiencing tension as local communities have voluntarily agreed to a two-month fishing ban to help fish populations recover. Rangers from the PROLANSATE Foundation are tasked with enforcing this ban, which includes patrolling the waters and confronting illegal fishing activities. Despite the community's support for conservation, rangers face threats and hostility from fishermen, illustrating the risks associated with environmental protection in Honduras, one of the most perilous countries for environmental defenders. The initiative aims to ensure sustainable fishing practices, but the enforcement of the ban has led to social tensions, as some fishermen feel targeted while others continue illegal practices without consequence.
