In the Philippine Islands, Hoggish Greedly introduces the native to dynamite fishing to "help them with their food problem". What they don't realize was that it was destroying their island's coral reef, which protected them from tidal waves, and Greedly steals the coral pieces under the radar to sell off for cash.
