	North Island Seychelles New York Times Travel Review by vacationtechnician.com
		The islanders who abandoned North left behind imported flora and fauna: hundreds of coconut, casuarina, banana and citrus trees, bougainvillea, cows, rats, Indian mynah birds, cats, barn owls and an invasive weed called lantana, referred to locally as "lannier." "Nothing likes the lannier," says Patrick, dismissively, sucking at his umpteenth cigarette of the morning.
		Unlike several islands closer to Mahe (Cousine or Fregate, for instance), where there are huge numbers of extremely vocal noddies, crested terns, Mascarene martins and white-tailed tropic birds, here it was their absence and the silence that hit you.
		Degraded as the island was, a South African ecologist, Peter Hitchins, saw its potential and brought it to the attention of Johannesburg-based Wilderness Safaris.

	Seeing The Light - North Manitou Island Lighthouse

		However, with the establishment of the North Manitou Shoal Light to replace the lightship in 1935, the North Manitou Light station had outlived its purpose, and the acetylene light was discontinued.
