Paramedics took the man to Straub Clinic & Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

DOGS BLAMED FOR SHEARWATER ATTACK

Authorities are blaming stray or wild dogs for the massacre of breeding shearwaters found strewn about the Kahuku Golf Course.

The wedge-tailed shearwaters are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act.

David Smith of the state Division of Forestry and Wildlife says 86 dead birds were found with puncture wounds.

The birds were reported at three different sites around the golf course where they seek shelter under large bushes.

Kahuku resident Noyita Saravia says she came upon the horrible scene of floating feathers and dead birds Tuesday morning.

About 40 dead birds were found on the golf course a year ago.
