SNAIL EXTINCTION PREVENTION PROGRAM

ABOUT SEPP

The Hawaii Snail Extinction Prevention Program (SEPP) is a partnership between the US Fish and Wildlife Service, the Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources-Division of Forestry and Wildlife and the University of Hawaii. Our program has ambitious goals of securing rare and endangered snail species through the integration of novel captive rearing methods, on the ground management of wild populations and coordination with partner groups to align rare snail conservation objectives and management techniques across islands and entities.

We are guided by an advisory committee comprised of conservationists, academics, and personnel from partner organizations and agencies with experience working in Hawaiian ecosystems and especially with Hawaiian snails. Our advisory committee, the Hui Kähuli, meets annually to guide conservation efforts.


Donate to help the Kāhuli

Donations go towards purchasing critical laboratory equipment and supplies that help the SEPP team care for over 10,000 kāhuli. With the donations from last year, SEPP was able to purchase a microscope, which they use for a variety of purposes, one of which is to find tiny keiki kāhuli.
