To help curb the coqui frog problem in Hawaii, the Hawaii Island Economic Development Board thought of a program enlisting the help of kids. By killing the coqui, kids would receive iPods and Xbox 360s.
School principals balked at this idea of vigilante kids eradicating a species, even an invading foreign one. Coqui killas!
From Honolulu magazine, January 2008.
