    Leonardo DiCaprio welcomes Uruguay's environmental initiative

    Lobos Island has been a crucial strategic geopolitical and economic center since colonial times

    American actor and environmental activist Leonardo DiCaprio welcomed through his Instagram account Uruguay's decision to declare Lobos Island, a group of 22 rock formations in the South Atlantic off Punta del Este, a protected natural area to be shielded from buildings and urbanization developments. It was also said to have frustrated Maldonado Mayor (governor) Enrique Antía's plans for other tourist attractions.
