Hawaiian monk seals are extremely endangered marine
mammals. There are fewer than 1300
remaining in the ocean. Of these,
approximately 100 occupy the main Hawaiian islands. Please
allow them the freedom they need to survive—do not approach them, let them
feel safe in their environment, and keep our land and waters litter-free. |
