De retour au pays, il a demandé au colon français d'administrer le cantonnement d'Ambatoboeny, sa demande a été refusée .Il a alors formé un groupe de rebelle à Garafantsy.  Les crocodiles du Lac Ravelobe sont considérés comme sacrés. L’immolation de zébu, destinée à ces crocodiles, a lieu tous les ans. Ces sauriens ont un nom spécifique  « mampisento » - qui fait soupirer. L’histoire du crocodile Mampisento remonte à l’époque du Roi Andriamisondrotramasinarivo issu de la lignée Marambitsy (ethnie Sakalava, originaire de Mitsinjo), qui par fierté, ne voulant pas l’annexion des merina de son territoire durant le règne de Radama I (1810-1828), se serait jeté dans le lac avec sa famille. Un portier du roi s’est abstenu de suivre son maître dans son suicide. Quand il mourût, peu de temps après, un crocodile est apparu aux rives du lac, il évoquait étrangement le portier qui venait de décéder et sa vue faisait soupirer tous ceux qui l’ont vu.  Ce sont les esprits de ce roi qui se révèlent aux vivants par le phénomène de possession  « tromba».  Le lac est sacré jusqu’à maintenant, le porc y est tabou «&nbsp;fady&nbsp;», car les Marambitsy étaient des musulmans.  3.3.5 Spécialités de la région  '''Artisanat ''':  Tissage traditionnel du raphia, teinture naturelle de fibre de raphia  '''Culture (légumes, fruits)''' :  mangues, banane, papaye, mokotra (strychnos spinosa ), citron, jujube, brèdes, oignons, tomates  '''Elevage :'''  Volailles, porcins, caprins, bovins  '''Marché''' :  * Andranofasika&nbsp;: chaque mercredi, vente des produits locaux* Ankazomborona&nbsp;: chaque jeudi, vente des produits locaux  '''4 Se loger'''  '''4.1 A l’intérieur du Parc'''&nbsp;: A Ampijoroa   {| class="prettytable"| colspan="2" | <center>'''HEBERGEMENT'''</center> |-| colspan="2" | <center>'''Un gîte d’étape du Parc '''</center> |-| <center>'''DESCRIPTION'''</center>| <center>'''Tarif /Nuitée '''</center> |-| 6 chambres avec lits de deux places ou 2 lits à une place (sanitaire commun)| <div align="right">35 000 Ar</div>    |-| 5 bungalows pour 4 personnes&nbsp;: 1 lit double plus 1 lit superposé  (sanitaire privé)| <div align="right">80 000 Ar</div>    |-| 2 new bungalows pour 4 personnes&nbsp;: 1 lit double plus 1 lit superposé  (sanitaire privé)| <div align="right">100 000 Ar</div>    |-| Location matelas supplémentaire| <div align="right">4 000 Ar</div> |-| Location cuisine en pleine air pour les groupes/jour (y compris réfectoire)| <div align="right">10 000 Ar</div> |-| Location réfectoire pour 30 personnes| <div align="right">65 000 Ar</div> |-| colspan="2" | N.B.
