Peter Graham and his family read about the Americans' visit to the island on their blog, which included photos of the family's pet duck plucked and about to be cooked.
Graham's daughter, Amanda said the police have shown a lack of interest, even hanging up on the family when they call for updates.
"We filed a complaint and they haven’t done anything," Amanda said.
"The general perception is that we should just get over it but they are not seeing the bigger picture here, and perhaps that is the mentality of the police themselves."

:( I've been following this story. That man brought the population from 3 to 2,000 West Indian Whistling-Ducks.
After the incident with the Americans the birds were silent; silent the day after, silent two weeks later. They're only just starting to come out of hiding now and only in the evenings.
Those whistling ducks are globally threatened. Maybe the tourists did not know it but ignorance of the law excuses no one. I don't think it's too much to expect that people be held accountable for their actions.
