ENDANGERED Marine Mammals in Hawaii
Marine species are facing challenges in finding suitable places to rest and breed. Hawaiian beaches serve as crucial habitats for several mammal species, including the Green Sea Turtle and the Hawaiian Monk Seal, both of which are considered endangered. The strategies employed to protect and recover these Hawaiian Monk Seals and Green Sea Turtles have led to the development of conservation education programs in Hawaii and the preservation of their habitats, benefiting not only these species but also the entire ecosystem they rely on.
