Kauai’s picturesque Poipu Beach Park is one of the places overrun by Hawaii feral chickens. Hurricanes released these birds into the wild, with no natural predators. These colorful feathered invaders have become a charming sight to some and a significant nuisance to others, prompting this newly enacted law.

Concerning the feral chickens, how are you going to stop that feed from getting into native birds and now you’re stopping them from having eggs that will hatch.
On our trips to Oahu we saw chickens everywhere except in Honolulu. They were like the pigeons & English sparrows here.
One night we had dinner in a rustic bar in Haleiwa, dozens of them were walking around in the dining room. I ordered a chicken sandwich & I half-expected the cook to come running out of the kitchen with a hatchet & grab one, then give me the shaka sign & tell me Freshest chicken you’ve ever had, man!
