Yup, with pretty much everything i saw, but it really made me think about how much damage they must when harvesting. I also saw many tourists standing up (to readadjust their life jacket and goggles)on tabling acros, montis etc. and snaping off large portions. People who can't swim shouldn't be allowed near the shallow areas of the reef where they can cause alot of damage with their feet. I also tried yelling at whoever i saw, but its futile when nobody understands english.

It amazes me how some people like nature but have no respect for it. When I went to the west coast of Vancouver Island ,I would avoid stepping on things even if it meant taking the long way around while some parents where watching their kids dry out a sunstar and torture / kill crabs. I told the kids as best I could not to do that and I picked up the sunstar and crabs and put them back in the water. I was just waiting for the parents to say something to me but they knew I was mad enough to turn them into crab bait.
