Prince Edward Island conservation officers are investigating after a group of people set up a camp site inside a closed area at Barachois Beach, along the Island s North Shore.
Provincial and federal wildlife officers arrived on the scene to find a tent had been set up on a dune, and a bonfire had been lit.
Shannon Mader, a species at risk manager with Island Trust Nature, was shocked to learn what happened in the prohibited area.
