Kapolei has no blanket wildlife-feeding ban, but feeding feral chickens, cats, or pigs often prompts nuisance citations and HOA complaints across the Second City.
Hawaii state law regulates wildlife through HRS Chapter 183D and species protection under HRS 195D, and federal MMPA covers marine mammals. Honolulu ROH does not impose a general wildlife feeding ban, but ROH 7-2 Animal Nuisance provisions allow enforcement when feeding creates sanitation, odor, or wildlife aggregation problems. Kapolei has substantial feral chicken and cat populations, and the open agricultural edges near Honouliuli see feral pig activity. Feeding stations in HOA common areas, shopping plazas, or on street frontages commonly prompt 311 complaints and covenant enforcement.
County nuisance citations for aggregation conditions and HOA covenant fines for unauthorized feeding stations.
