Laurie,

Visitors already have to pay a National Parks levy of about USD 100, and I think it has recently been upped.

Laurie,

I think the poor old Ecuadorean government will need a fair bit of outside financial help with a baiting program. They have enough problems raising the cash to feed their people, let alone rats.
