If there is any fresh fishing in Guadeloupe, particularly for the inhabitants' food. In this case, give details. When and how is this fishing done and who are the people involved? What tools do the fishermen use to do their work? A list of all the fish produced by these types of small fishing, such as tasards, sardines, caragnes, etc. Whether turtles are fished there.

What species of turtles are seen and which are the most profitable. Whether all the turtles that are caught are consumed fresh. Whether they are still brought in salted as they were in the past, where they come from and who is involved in this trade. Whether several of this kind have been seen in the Cayman Islands. Whether there are land turtles. Whether they are numerous. Whether they are large and good to eat. Whether manatees are sometimes caught there and, if so, provide an accurate description of this fish because the illustrations we have do not correspond to what has been said about it. If there are several species, note the differences between males and females. How long do females carry their young and how many do they produce at a time? If manatee fishing, formerly practised in the Amazon River, is still practised in some parts of America, and who are the people who practise it? Is the salted meat of this fish still traded, and where does it come from? Are there porpoises, and what colour are they? Are there many crocodiles in Guadeloupe? Are they dangerous, and are there many of them? Are there many lizards? What use are they put to, and are they brought in to be eaten, and in what manner? What kinds of foreign salted fish, such as green or dried cod and salmon, etc., are brought to the island. Where do these fish come from and who trades in them? Whether ambergris is sometimes found on the coast and around the island, when and under what circumstances it is most likely to be found. Whether whales are often seen there and whether sea bears, calves and sea cows also come there. Whether they are found in large numbers and whether sea lions of another species are also seen there. In this case, provide a faithful and accurate description. Whether there are large numbers of shellfish on the coast and of what species.
