Jennifer Waipa, manager of the Kīlauea Point National Wildlife Refuge, told the board that nēnē, including goslings, had been killed by dogs on Refuge and adjacent lands at Kālihi Beach.
The Fish & Wildlife Service will post temporary signs to remind people of the County leash law and the possibility of federal fines for harming endangered birds. The refuge also reported staff changes, ongoing maintenance in the lighthouse lens room and a FLAP study about pedestrian access between the refuge entrance and Kīlauea town; an open house is planned in May to present the research findings.
