NFWF Grant Profile

Construct 10 miles of ungulate-proof fence, build 10.75 miles of new firebreaks to protect over 1,900 acres of native habitat, and outplant 7,000 native plants consisting of 25 species to restore mixed wet and dry forests on Hawai‘i Island and O‘ahu. Project will: 1) provide landscape-level protection from invasive ungulates; 2) protect sensitive habitats by reducing fire risk; and 3) create new populations of endangered, threatened, and at-risk plant species on state managed lands.
