<br />Hawaii Game Management Advisory Commission Meeting <br />Minutes – August 25, 2014 <br />Man: I don’t know much about the case \[unclear\]… <br /> <br />Man: Yeah, yeah. <br /> <br />Man: But from what I assume – on the Internet you have to be careful what you <br />see – supposedly and it’s unofficial – I think – and this is what I heard down the <br />grapevine – that picture was taken in Micronesia was legal. But see, they posted <br />it, but people have given us information on people posing with turtles and we’ve <br />followed through with that and with that case you call the police department when <br />they do search warrant \[unclear\] law enforcement aspect that they need to do <br />they come across \[unclear\] turtles – the turtles \[unclear\]. \[Unclear\] And then <br />again, the public sees give us a call – cause we were always looking \[unclear\]. <br />Oh yeah that ones, \[unclear\] in Micronesia \[unclear\]. <br /> <br />Chair Lodge: Thank you. <br /> <br />C. Masuda: Stephen Hurt? <br /> <br />C. Masuda: Paul Griffith? <br /> <br />P. Griffith: My first question is to David Penn. Mr. Penn are you available. <br /> <br />D.Penn: Yeah, I’m still here. <br /> <br />P. Griffith: Mr. Penn – you talked about making new hunting areas… <br /> <br />C. Masuda: Mr. Chairman, are you gonna take – are you gonna pass along the <br />question to Mr. Penn? <br /> <br />Chair Lodge: Yes. <br /> <br />P. Griffith: Mr. Penn,, we have more than enough lands that have been taken <br />\[unclear\] eradicated that they’re not dead and dormant. We can use those lands. <br />These lands, they could be reassessed, Mr. Penn, \[unclear\] game management <br />plan before ever considering – take care of looking at more lands to hunt. By <br />doing that we wouldn’t have to be looking at taking more lands. Those lands that <br />are left that is dormant, we need to reassess those and correct them. And <br />\[unclear\] would you take an answer? <br /> <br />D. Penn: I think that we shouldn’t rule anything out if we take reasonable, <br />scientific, cultural, whatever factors we have to consider and look at all the lands <br />that are available and make the decision based on the best information that we <br />have. So, yeah, I wouldn’t rule that out, but that’s not the focus right now, that’s a <br />big effort to go in and do all of that reassessment work and I don’t think that, <br />that’s something that we’re necessarily geared up for at the moment. <br /> <br /> 14 <br /> <br />
