Yes, Hawaii has scavengers, both native and introduced species. Native scavengers include birds like the Hawaiian crow and the ‘io (Hawaiian hawk), while introduced species such as rats and feral pigs also play scavenging roles in the ecosystem. These scavengers contribute to nutrient cycling by consuming dead organic matter. However, the introduction of non-native species can disrupt local ecosystems and impact native scavenger populations.
