Endangered
birdback
fromthe
brinkat
wildlife
center
Three years after the last
piece of timber went into
placeat theHawaiiWildlife
Center, the native animal
rescue facility is hard at
work giving the injured a
secondchance.
The center, based in
Kapaau, provides care and
rehabilitation of winged
creatures from across the
archipelago, and also train-
ing inwildlife rescue.HWC
iscelebrating itsthirdbirth-
day thismonth with eight
birds in its care, includ-
ing a pueo from Lanai, a
Hawaiianpetrel fromMaui
andHawaiian hawks from
theBig Island.
HWC founderanddirec-
torLindaElliottwaspartof
a teamcaring for28Laysan
ducks as they were trans-
ported to Kure Atoll from
MidwayAtoll inSeptember
tohelpexpandthenumbers
of the critically endangered
bird.Saturday,Elliott tolda
gathering of about 30 peo-
ple at the center that they
werepartofanetwork that
makesherworkpossible.
“We are the center but
it takes eyes everywhere,”
Elliott said. “All of you
spreading thewordwe are
here gives us the opportu-
nity to savemoreanimals.”
Elliott has been rehabili-
tating animals in Hawaii
and elsewhere for decades.
It struck her as odd that
a wildlife hospital was
lacking in a state with the
distinction of being the
endangered species capital
of theU.S. Elliott drew up
the first plans for the cen-
ter in 1994, but it wasn’t
until a decade later that
the center gained traction
under the umbrella of the
North Kohala Community
ResourceCenter.TheHWC
became its own nonprofit
in 2006, and construction
of the centeroffLighthouse
Road started in2008.

Group launched to stop alleged turtle poaching
Something’s fishy in Puako—
at least according to handyman
and charter boat captain Will
Little.
“It has come to my attention
that there is an illegal slaughter
of reef fishand the takingofpro-
tected green sea turtles. There
doesn’t seem tobeanyway toget
the locals, either residentsor law
enforcement, todo anything so I
am appealing to theworld news
and Fox News’ ability to reach
themasses,”Littlewrote toWest
Hawaii Today. “It is my job to
take people out and enjoy what
God has given us — dolphins,
whales, turtles and amyriad of
other beautiful creatures. It has
come tomy attention that there
is a very small group f people
not from our island going in at
night and killing pretty much
everything in sight. With all
of the federal monies spent on
worthless programs, I appeal to
you guys to bring this to the
attention of the world so that
maybewe canput a stop to it.”
Little claims honu have com-
pletely disappeared from the

Waikoloa Village abuzz with run for literacy
Waikoloa Village was bustling with
action Saturdaymorning as dozens of
runners took to the streets for the fifth
annualFriendsof theLibrary-Waikoloa
RegionWalk/Run forLiteracy.
“It is our major fundraiser for us,”
said FL-WR Past President Bette
Green. “It isnot somuch that the race
earns money, but it keeps us in the
forefrontof the community’smind as a
reminder ofwhywe are here and how
importantbooksand literacyare.”
FL-WR is a nonprofit organization
thatwas formed in 2010with the pri-
mary goal of bringing aHawaii state
library to theWaikoloa region.
Many strides have been made
toward that goal. A piece of land by
theWaikoloa Stableshas been secured
as the land for the library, commu-
nity support and government backing
have been garnered, and the state has
released funds for the design of the
librarybuilding.
While the group iswell on itsway to
seeing itsdreamachieved,abeautifully
decorated bookmobile has filled the
void in themeantime.
“Ourmission is toprovidea learning

al gathering place via the traditional
bookmobile until a permanent library
facility canbebuilt,” saidGreen.
