Work is currently underway to replace an old, rusty fence that surrounds the sprawling Kanahā Pond State Wildlife Sanctuary on Maui. The old fending is being replaced with predator-proof fencing to keep rats, cats, mongoose, and dogs from attacking ground-nesting birds.
The new fencing at Kanahā Pond State Wildlife Sanctuary will provide safe nesting habitats for native and endangered birds by excluding mammalian predators such as rats, mongoose and cats.
