Ke kūlana mālama o ka nahesa Kirtland.
Ua manaʻo ʻia ka nahesa Kirtland he ʻano laha ʻole ma kona ākea. Ma Michigan, ua hoʻolaha ʻia he "ʻano hoʻoweliweli", a ma Indiana ua "ʻaneʻane make" ia. ʻO nā moʻo kirtland e noho kokoke ana i nā kūlanakauhale nui ke kū nei i ka hoʻomohala ʻoihana a me ka haumia. Ua kū mai kahi mokuʻāina kokoke i ka hoʻoweliweli i kēlā mau wahi kahi i ʻoi aku ai ka nui o ka mahele ma mua o 2000 mau kilomika kuea, heterogeneous ka hāʻawi ʻana o kēlā me kēia kanaka, a ʻo ka maikaʻi o ka wahi noho. Noho kekahi poʻe o ka nahesa Kirtland i nā wahi i pale ʻia a no laila ʻike i ka hoʻoweliweli liʻiliʻi i ko lākou ola. Aia nā hana mālama i kēia mau mea:
- ʻike a me ka pale ʻana o kahi helu nui (ma ka liʻiliʻi 20 paha) nā wahi kūpono ma ka pae;
- ka hoʻolauna ʻana i kahi pāpā piha ma ke kālepa ʻana i kēia ʻano nāhesa (nā kānāwai aupuni);
- ke hāpai nei i ka ʻike o ka lehulehu e pili ana i nā pilikia o ka mālama ʻana i kekahi laha laha ʻole.
Aia ka nahesa Kirtland ma ka papa inoa ʻo IUCN.
