A seabird restoration project was initiated this week at Nuʻalolo Kai on the rugged and remote Nā Pali coast of Kauaʻi. The project is a partnership of multiple organizations and aims to restore seabird populations that have been lost from the site due to introduced predators.
HAENA, Kauai (KITV4) Conservationists are calling on the public to help safeguard Ua u Kani, or Wedge-tailed Shearwater Seabirds, after five of them were found dead in the Ha ena area
Through conservation partnerships, hundreds of seabirds were rescued this year during seabird fallout season, which takes place roughly between Sept. 15 and Dec. 15 each year.
Researchers found no significant difference in nesting success of the wedge-tailed shearwater at an unprotected beach park versus a site with restricted public access.
