Roque de Santo Domingo de Garafía and nearby Roque de las Tabaibas appear in the 2020–2022 seabird study. Weather conditions prevented surveys on the rocks during the reported campaign; the team observed and photographed Roque de Garafía from the coast. [1]

The rock’s central area contains stones and blocks offering cavities suitable for seabirds such as Bulwer’s petrel. The 2022 report highlighted this habitat and earlier accounts of an important colony, although the visit from the coast did not allow nests to be checked directly. [1]
