How one Hunter can Save Hawaii's Forest
Ойын-сауық
When most people hear "Save the Forest" I doubt they're thinking they’d have to kill anything - however, conservation here in Hawaii might mean just that! In this episode of "Aloha From Hawaii" I meet up with Justin Lee to explore the countless ways he and his family are protecting and revitalizing their Native forest.
Mahalo Justin for your time and mahalo @OluKai for supporting these stories!

🫡 hope Tennessee is nice brotha - glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for uploading more videos!
I recently learned that some Indigenous groups (like the Dakota) refer to invasive species as "displaced relatives" basically putting the responsibility for that displacement on humans vs the animals. I feel that is reflected in your discussion after you killed the first sheep, working with the living things that come to your space.
Thanks for making this video, Sam! Nicely done

This was so beautiful. Mahalo.
Always good vibes with Justin 🙌🙌🤙🏾
Great episode. At some point perhaps introduce the fans to some of the background of the arrival of these invasive creatures. Not sure if people realize that only birds, trees, plants, and marine life inhabited the islands until sometime in the first millennium AD when the original Hawaiians arrived from the South Pacific.

Thanks for the tip - you’ll love the podcast we got coming!
I loved this video. Keep ‘em coming!
Often times when the topic of invasive animals in Hawaii comes up, there's no talk of what success looks like. Is it eradication or a balance. I'm biased and on the side Ide like to continue hunting and seeing the next generation get the chance. Most fathers were hunting land that is now fenced off or eradicated, sex ratios are all messed up, what little we had for mature animals has dwindled. There's a divide with dlnr/conservation efforts and hunters. This video wasn't about that, I recognize it was about hunters being a management tool, which is awesome. Could dive more into this topic though, most viewers are not in the know. Congratulations on your ram, awesome merch.
Avid bow hunter from Maui, great video I wish this is the only way we would deal with invasive animals but on Maui there are so many eradication teams out at night just murdering deer and not even harvesting the meat it’s really sad.
the people need more, soo solid!!!!
love it already
I'm on a much smaller level with the same goals💯puna boy for life
