Natural Resources In Los Cabos
The National Institute of Ecology has two federal natural areas in Los
Cabos: the San Jose estuary where there are multiple species of birds, plants,
fish and reptiles, and the National Marine Part of Cabo Pulmo which is the only
reef in the Sea of Cortez. This reef has been called the oldest reef in the
American Pacific because it has remains of reef fauna from the Pleistocene era.
The bay of Cabo San Lucas is considered a marine refuge of flora, fauna and
deep water ecology. Los Cabos also shares care with La Paz for the Sierra de
la Laguna area. A variety of agencies at the local, state and federal level
coordinate to protect the abundant resources found in the area.

Holiday Alert!
On Thursday November 20th, Mexico celebrates the anniversary of the Mexican
Revolution and there will be parades in Cabo San Lucas and San Jose. It is an
official holiday which means you must either give your employees the day off
or pay double time. With a minimum wage of $4.50 a day, paying double for one
day wouldn't hurt, would it? The holiday commemorates how in 1910, Francisco
Madero denounced President Diaz who kept re-electing himself, and called for
a national insurrection. He then declared himself President of Mexico. Other
Mexican leaders emerged at this time, including the famous Pancho Villa and
Emiliano Zapata. Each would eventually gain control of their regions. Zapata
fell in an ambush and was assassinated by the army. Diaz could not control the
insurrection and fled to France. Madero became President but had lots of opponents
and the country broke into different factions with insurrection factions rampaging
across the country. Venustiano Carranza rose to the presidency and ordered Madero
taken prisoner and executed while Pancho Villa continued to run amuck through
the North. Villa was later taken prisoner and executed and President Carranza
initiated a more stable government for the country. - Enjoy the holiday.
