Everything that occurs naturally in Hawaii either arrived by swimming or flying, or as a result of evolution from something that swam or flew. What ends up on an island is more or less random, as some species in Hawaii are found on only one or a few of the islands, and nowhere else in the world. Islands like Hawaii are used to test theories on evolution and ecology because of the limited ways that species can colonize an island, and the way the ecosystem responds when a new species arrives. Today, there are all sorts of things recently introduced by humans - mosquitoes, cats, goats, pigs, rats, ants, and all sorts of plants.

there are hawaiiens
and the island was born from volcanic eruptions
all the life on it came later ,introduced by man or it swam or flew there
so there are birds that are wild ,maybe pogs that escaped
and there must a lot of stuff like iguannas ,and insects

hawaii to start of with was vocanic rock
coconuts washed ashore started the soil of and visiting birds introduced more vegetation with the seeds that were in their bellies
needs a Hawaiien to answer this ,one that is not too wild.

There are birds and fish which got here by flying and swimming,respectively. The other land animals were brought here at one time or another. So there are wild boar, deer and mongoose for example. There are no snakes or rabid animals in Hawaii.
