After the ciguatera is stirred up by the dredging it is eaten by fish. The toxic ciguatera builds up in fish that are farther up the food chain that consume smaller poisoned fish. Humans that eat these fish can get very sick for months. Because of this all fish caught in the lagoon are not consumed. All rights reserved.
