Coqui frog control work closes Big Island park

Advertiser Staff

The Manuka State Park and a portion of the Manuka Natural Area Reserve on the Big Island will be closed today through Thursday for coqui frog control work.

The Department of Land and Natural Resources said it will be completing another round of aerial treatments over the next three days and said no camping permits will be issued for the week and over the weekend following the treatment to keep public exposure to the treatment area to a minimum.

The park will reopen to the public on Monday.
