After visiting the project Dn Esteban Paulino Melissa decided to take one of the prettiest beaches once Huatajata ... When we arrived, we received a beautiful Andean carpenter who posed for the camera literally ...
After admiring this extraordinary bird (Now Reptile), we went to the beach, something that came forward to play Melisa on the shore. However, and about 20 m from it and begin to see a show by other disgusting ... Garbage, garbage and more crap ...
local shore and pier fishermen Huatajata, garbage of all kinds are is watered everywhere and mostly local visitors left by weekend ... Unfortunately it is true that nobody cares what you do not love ... It complies with the selfishness of "I saw it, I enjoyed others to take charge of the waste leaving "... I have personally seen how families make their barbecue on the shore of the lake and then leave behind all their trash so as I said" someone take care, I do not share. " The literacy education of these visitors is tangible in fact, if you really consider visiting Lake Titicaca as their own, as their heritage would never do what they do ...
line debris left by waves the lake. The Titicaca lake as a sacred living thing on earth spits, management of human waste polluters who tried to throw into the lake. Defense mechanism.
waste line extending along all the edges with a width of about one meter ... This waste is spewed by the sacred lake not only give this part of the lake, but the coasts of the islands in front you see in the picture ... Lumix FZ 50.
trash line as far as the eye can see ... Sorry expression of illiteracy heritage of many Bolivians ... Lumix FZ 50.
This issue of Andean Tero (Vanellus resplendens) is like other species remaining in the garbage and pollution of the lake at least for me and my family is sacred!. Lumix FZ 50
with trash everywhere yet we can still admire the natural expressions of this beautiful butterfly sipping, not lose hope ... Lumix FZ 50
garbage on the line but away from visiting the area found a graveyard of mollusks that time to show the extraordinary diversity of this group of animals in the lake, also shows the mass mortality of the same for polluting the lake ... and painful ... Sorry Lumix FZ 50
As if that were not enough pollution waste, genetic contamination is also introduced species as seen in this photo where the foot of the majestic Illimani observed breeding rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mikiss) that community members raised the detriment of native species, also edible and unique in the world (endemic) ... Lumix FZ 50
At the foot of the mighty Illimani, a passenger ship that carries tourists across the lake, ride on the pollution that inevitably come left by those who should be guardians of the sacred lake ... Lumix FZ 50
With Denise and Melissa decided to lake and embarked about Don Pancho, a local fisherman ispis (Orestias ispi), to the trout farm near ... Lumix FZ 50
There, Andrew, local community member in charge of the farm, took about five trout (2 kg) charged at a rate of 20 Bs the Kg (Approx U.S. $ 3). Lumix FZ 50
Don Pancho looking at the process ... Lumix FZ 50
Andrés weighing trout in the boat of Don Pancho ...

A very healthy specimen of Oncorhynchus mikiss fresh from the farm ...

conversation with Don Pancho told us that his ispis (Orestias ispi) are sold in the marking of El Alto to 5 Bs the Kg and increasingly sold less because people prefer trout, particularly those in upper middle class. For them, more than a matter of taste is a matter of culinary status ...
Lumix FZ 50 Don Pancho is another Bolivian " heritage" one of the last fishermen ispis the lake, one of several generations who have inherited the office ... What a great honor to have known! Thanks Dan. Pancho!
Don Pancho has to get up early and go to the islands opposite to fish ispis while raising trout hatchery has its waterfront. The ispis as many native species are suffering from the impact of trout prey on them ... Obviously, those who provide state trout fry PUBLICLY no trout in the lake and therefore, this impact is a fallacy ... It will be ?????
The question I ask myself is: If more than half of the trout taken were full of eggs, how to guarantee farmers that they do not go to the lake?. Hatcheries net bags are simple, whose holes are about fifty times larger than trout eggs. The truth is that photographic evidence is impossible to continue claiming that lake trout do not go ... Another story ... with that action, not words ... Mr! Lies have short legs!
Well, although the trout are not to blame for polluting the lake and preying on native species, so sorry for her ... Trout egg! This is how I like to see (and taste) to the trout! Lumix FZ 50
Melisa end of the day ... At the back, pollution ... How I wish my beautiful daughter would enjoy this beautiful landscape, without being above it taking care that playing with the sand does not cut it with a glass, or is a nasty surprise ...
The sacred lake was the cradle of Andean civilization, Pukina speaking peoples, Aymara and Quechua were sheltered by the sacred lake and revered him for it ... here Manco Kapac and Ocllo, the Inca empire builders ... all these people to Over thousands of years the lake considered sacred and respected him for that condition ... All these people gave us this wonderful heritage, to respect it as they did ... he who loves wealth, it preserves, cherishes, respects ... that cares and loves the heritage is by definition a patriot ... Where are the patriots ???...
