Redonda: The Caribbean island transformed into an eco haven

BBC News By Gemma Handy image captionRedonda is Antigua and Barbuda s lesser known third island There are no resorts, no beaches, no amenities, and its contribution to the national GDP is practically zero. Yet the mile-long rocky isle of Redonda in the Caribbean Sea is deemed one of the most valuable spots in the region. Virtually untouched by humans for centuries, Antigua and Barbuda s lesser known third island has long been a key nesting site for migrating birds from across the world and home to wildlife found nowhere else on Earth. When environmentalists first touted the idea of entirely removing thousands of invasive black rats and a herd of feral goats which were threatening to wipe them out, it seemed ambitious at best.

Redonda, The Caribbean s Lesser Known Island, Now An Eco Haven

Apr 20, 2021 02:22 AM EDT Antigua and Barbuda s lesser-known third island has long been a vital breeding spot for migrant birds from all over the world, as well as a sanctuary to animals found nowhere else on the planet. (Photo : Wikimedia Commons) (Photo : Pixabay) It appeared ambitious when activists first proposed eradicating thousands of native black rats and a herd of wild goats trying to wipe them out. Five years later, uninhabited Redonda s once desolate landscape is now a lush green paradise, teeming with fresh new flora, and native lizard populations have soared. Work on the initiative started in 2016, but its true achievement was only recently discovered when conservationists returned for the first time in 18 months.

The rebirth of Redonda

The rebirth of Redonda Spread the love by Gemma Handy Something magical is afoot on the nation’s lesser known third island of Redonda. Once a desolate expanse of rock, this tiny mile-long islet is today a burgeoning eco haven, teeming with fresh new life and vegetation several feet high. Redonda may lack the glorious scenery and white sand beaches that put its sisters on the map, but this volcanic hulk is said to be one of the most ecologically valuable landscapes in the region. And now its status as prized habitat for seabirds and critically endangered reptiles is set to be cemented into law. The Environmental Awareness Group (EAG) has received approval from Cabinet to begin the process of designating Redonda and its surrounding seas as a protected area.
