Pele also punishes visitors who take lava rocks away with them. Although "Pele's curse" is said to be an urban legend started by a park ranger to preserve the volcano, others insist that it is true. Tourists who take away lava rock or volcanic sand often find bad luck awaiting them when they return home. Pele is very protective of her home and her children, and the only way to remove the curse is to ship the rock back to Hawaii and ask for her forgiveness. Every year, thousands of rocks are returned, and there are even companies that will assist these guilty tourists, leaving the rocks and an offering in hopes of appeasing the angry Goddess.
