The caves in El Choco National Park, near Cabarete in the Dominican Republic, have become an important part of the country's tourism industry, but conservationists worry about the long-term consequences tourism brings on the cave microclimates, which are affected by physical alterations, such as concrete paths and steel handrails, as well as climate changes in carbon dioxide, humidity and temperature altered by human presence. In the image, a candle lights a young Dominican boy named David who escorted a group of young American tourists.
