However, there are a few exceptions:
* Hawaiian Monk Seal: This critically endangered species is found primarily on the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands, a remote archipelago. While they do sometimes venture closer to the main islands, their primary habitat is far from the mainland.
* Nene (Hawaiian Goose): The nene is a small goose endemic to Hawaii. While not a "large" animal in the traditional sense, they are quite large for a bird and can be seen in certain areas, particularly on the Big Island.
* Introduced Species: There are some larger animals that have been introduced to Hawaii, such as wild pigs, goats, and deer. However, these are often considered invasive species, and their presence can disrupt the native ecosystem.
To see wildlife in Hawaii, you would need to visit protected areas and nature reserves. You could also go on guided tours or snorkeling excursions to see marine life such as sea turtles, dolphins, and whales.
Important Note: Always respect wildlife and avoid disturbing their natural habitats.
