WAILUKU, Maui (AP) — Officials are asking for public comment on the state Department of Land and Natural Resources’ State Wildlife Action Plan, which will plan for the department to address conservation needs for the islands’ native wildlife.
Informal meetings are being hosted across the state. Officials will gather input at the meetings about how the department should proceed with wildlife conservation throughout the next 10 years.
The draft plan identifies species with higher conservation needs and their habitats. At particular risk are a number of birds, mammals and marine creatures.
Written comments on the plan will be accepted until Aug. 31.
