Ndimakonda kuona anzanga akale komanso kukumana ndi anthu atsopano. Ndakhala ndikuchezera kuno kwa zaka zoposa makumi awiri ndi zisanu-ndipo ndikuthokoza chifukwa cha mwayi wonse womwe ndakhala nawo kuti ndigwire ntchito yoteteza zachilengedwe ndi chikhalidwe chomwe chimapangitsa gawo ili la Baja California Sur kukhala lapadera kwambiri.

Zaka khumi zapitazo, Loreto Bay National (Marine) Park adatchedwa Natural World Heritage Site. Sabata ino, ndidachita mwayi wokhala nawo pakuvumbulutsidwa kwamwambo wodziwika bwino wa malo okongola komanso apaderawa. Pakiyi ili ndi nsomba zambiri ndi nyama zoyamwitsa zam'madzi, ndipo ndi gawo limodzi mwa njira zosamukirako za anangumi abuluu, anamgumi am'mphepete, anamgumi, anamgumi opha, anamgumi oyendetsa ndege, anamgumi a umuna ndi zina zambiri.

Chimodzi mwa zolinga za ulendo wanga chinali kusonkhanitsa anthu ammudzi kuti akambirane za kukhazikitsidwa kwa malo osungira nyama kumtunda chakumwera kwa tawuni ya Loreto. Pafupifupi anthu a 30 adapezeka pamsonkhano woyamba ndipo tinakambirana za kukula kwake ndi mtundu wa paki, komanso udindo wa boma la Mexico, komanso kufunikira kwa chithandizo cha anthu. Chisangalalo choyambirira chinali chachikulu kuti gawo la mahekitala 2,023 (5,000 acre) lilandire chitetezo.

Monga momwe mungaganizire, Loreto ali ngati mbali zina za BCS-zouma komanso zimadalira kuteteza madzi kuti akhale ndi thanzi labwino, zachilengedwe, zachuma komanso kukhazikika. Pamakhala nkhawa yaikulu pakakhala kuthekera kulikonse kuwononga zachilengedwe za m'deralo. Kutsegula migodi yotsegula ndi chitsanzo chimodzi cha ntchito yamadzi, yowononga madzi yomwe imawulukira pamaso pa POEL. Ndidakhala ndi misonkhano yambiri yofunika yomwe idathandizira kudziwitsa zomwe zingachitike kuti anthu ammudzi asatsegule khomo la migodi kudzera pakupanga.n ya chilimbikitso cha ndalama monga msonkho wa katundu wa migodi pa nthaka yosatukuka.
