F;mall: _ _.... kmadinaltelusnut -_-- City _..... Kallua Kona ....... .. .... -... State -.... Hawaii My message to the Committee: 'Aloha Chair Wille and Committee Members Mahalo I-ortheopportunity! I support Bill 318 protecting Hawaii's reefwildlife from harnnful aquarium trade starvation and insufficient water volume during shipping. I believe that aquariums should be stocked with captive -bred livestock only but this Bill 318 is a step in the right direction. All wildlife should be treated in a humane fashion and the aquarium trade has current practices that are disrespectful to both the wildlife and aquarium enthusiasts. I hope you pass this bill and in the future I believe that we can have more captive bred livestock for this hobby. Mahalo, Karen Comm. No. � O. WRef. To; w S t Ref. Data rtb 17 2015
