From USFWS National Wildlife Refuge System:
This family of four endangered nēnē geese has been seen foraging behind the Visitor Center at Kilauea Point National Wildlife Refuge, HI. In 2014, the refuge built a 2,390-foot predator-proof fence to create an area protected from the damaging effects of cats, dogs, rodents and mongoose on the nēnē and other species. The nēnē is the official bird of the state of Hawaii and found exclusively in the wild on the islands of Oahu, Maui, Kaua’I and Hawai’i.
