This is even worse than "a first world problem" as only in America could this even be a problem and only in the US would we put the government in charge of making it worse.

Allow unlimited harvesting of them by the locals.

Polynesian settlers centuries ago, as far back as 1,000 AD. So, given these chickens’ long-standing relationship with the native land, why is this problem arising now? Because now the Islands aren't run by Pilynesian warriors, they are governed largely by pussified males and women, descendents of colonizing illegal immigrants?

unless they have evolved force shields or armor, think a bullet will do the trick. Perhaps mutant cane toads should be loosed on them

One of my staff is a naturalized citizen who came from Cuba. Subject of Alligators came up and I asked her if they had many in Cuba (not sure if they had caymans instead, or what not). She laughed and said, “No, there are some protected by the government, but they are, how do you say - food? So not many to find in the wild.”

Easy fix is to just offer a bounty for each chicken. They will be rounded up pronto. $5 a chicken dead or alive and every chicken on that island will be caught in month.

Put a pair of foxes on that island and the problem will disappear in a few weeks.

Hi.

Come to The Tampa Bay area. Everything from peacocks, alligators and parrots. Snakes, iguanas and walking catfish.

Then go to Ybor and get a dose of the roosters on your leg. Nasty little suckers will leave a mark.

Sometimes you just gotta have fried chicken.

5.56mm

When I lived in HI in the mid-’90s, the story was that the chickens became feral because of Hurricane Iniki in ‘92. They all got loose, procreated, and now they’re everywhere.

But can they stand up to the vicious chicken of Bristol?

They are certainly quite beautiful to look at.

And they shop at Walmart:

So you can just pick one off with Yer Gamo and toss it on the grill? That’s about an $8 savings.

Key West has had a feral chicken issue for as long as I can remember, and I have been going there every year since 1992.
