[oceanpirate83]

are there any young women there 20-30 age ??

@oceanpirate83 If you are looking for eligeble young women this is not the place ;-)

Have women of this age, but they are married or in a relationship

[ESCOFLiP]

so cool, is there a hospital or do you have to ship elsewhere

[19garfield62]

@ESCOFLiP There is a First Aid station. For heavy injury and Operations you have to go to Tahiti

[lilestower]

Thanx for answer ... you should show more info about this trip. Interesting.

[lilestower]

So did the others die or leave the island by themselves?

[19garfield62]

They are land turtles so they do not swim.

They where forcefully removed, because they eat a lot and so they where a risk for the Islands crop and vegetation

[lilestower]

So was the turtle put there or is there naturally?

Another question: what about the fresh water there - do they have it, and if, does it come in pipes or do they have to pump it up every time?

[19garfield62]

Nope the turtle is not endemic; she was imported from the Galapagos Islands with a few others in the 20th century. She is the only one left.

There is Fresh water and it is dependent on the rainfall. It comes in pipes to the houses from the central area
