In a letter in the largest daily newspaper of Mauritius, Mr Hardy, the main voice defending the culls of P. niger, called into question the competency and honesty of IBRG head Christian Vincenot and colleagues opposing the cull. To reply to these attacks and further address recent stances in the media by the Government of Mauritius, we published a pamphlet in the same journal, in which we summarize once more the situation and the reasons for which we believe that these culls are useless and dangerous, we call out the recurrent disparaging of evidence and defy the government to provide even a single study supporting its claims, and we finally defend the integrity of the scientific community.
