HVNP Mitigates Risk to Park Ecosystem as Emergency Evacuation Route is Completed
HAWAI‘I ISLAND: There is concern about the protection of the endangered nēnē goose and the introduction of invasive species to the Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park eco-system, particularly the little fire ant, coqui frogs and Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death
Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park will mitigate the risk of invasive species inside the park in the event that Highway 130 becomes impassable and Chain of Craters-Kalapana Road is used as an emergency evacuation route.
