Develop and implement a myna bird management project on Fakaofo atoll, Tokelau. The project will involve the preparation of a feasibility study and operational plan for myna bird eradication. If feasibility is positive, myna birds will be eradicated from the atoll and local people trained in how to prevent re-invasion.

Strategic Direction: 1 Prevent, control, and eradicate invasive species in key biodiversity areas
