Conservation Conference: The Pied Pipers Of Mokoli'i, Bird Havens, and a Super-Fence

On June 29 and 30, about 500 scientists, resource managers, students and others with a stake or interest in Hawai'i's natural resources filled the ballrooms of the Hilton Hawaiian Village in Waikiki to catch up on the latest studies being undertaken by their peers.

The 2004 Hawai'i Conservation Conference, sponsored by the Hawai'i Conservation Alliance, was built on the theme, "Hawai'i's Invasive Species Challenges." Discussions spanned a broad range of topics: from the proper use of rat poisons to new fence designs to alien coral and barnacle invasions.
