Dr. Lisa Crampton is a wonderful women with great spirit, i got tears, because i love birds. "any action is better then inaction ". i appreciate very much the work of all scientists, bilologists and all the peoples they spend their work to protect Natures diversity - for future generations aswell. 🙏
aww, geez, thanks :)
@@lisacalicrampton9375Thank You so much !
This is such an important video to watch. These birds are on the edge and do not have to go extinct - we have to take actions. As Cali said the worst thing we can do is to not take action at all. Please support the effort called Birds not Mosquitos ... time is running out and we need to move more quickly to deploy these new tools.

I honestly felt Dr. Lisa's pain and how agonizing it must be for her and her team to see this happen in front of their eyes.. These brilliant minds are doing such a fantastic job, kudos to them.

The bird im most sad about is the kauai oo ill never be able to forget the sad haunting call of the last living bird
Hard to watch and not get emotional. We are losing species right in front of our eyes. Mahalo for the message KFBRP!

When I went to Maui in 2016 I was devastated that I saw 0 birds none!!!! NONE!! Only chickens 🐓… literally got off the plane and was greeted by chickens. Breaks my heart so much … I want to help
look at bird bath..,
@@BirdBath1 wow🫢😁😁 very nice thank you !
Please donate & spread the word! A huge part of the issue, as Dr. Crampton said, is the misinformation about the mosquito control. We need people to get on board so that we can move forward with more mosquito releases on across the state ideally!!
It's heart breaking that birds are in danger of and going extinct.

Mahalo for all your kind words! Head over to our website kauaiforestbirds.org and follow us on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter (@kauaiforestbirds) to stay in touch and learn how you can support our efforts. Also, check out our CZcams Channel with many more videos and information. These birds are true jewels of the forest and need all the help they can get! Your support and love for them makes all the difference. #birdsnotmosquitoes
Hope is always important in order to engineer and motivate change. Yes, everything we do has the ability to improve or make things worse- from choosing to use disposables - or deciding against the overproduction and consumption. Climate change will happen, but it can certainly progress more slowly and allow us to adapt.

The equilibrium (stability) of an ecosystem relies primarily on the biodiversity of that system. If all the honeycreepers disappear and they have no other organism to take over their niche (role(s)) in the environment, then the entire system could collapse and shift from a negative feedback loop to a positive feedback loop, which could lead to the desertification of the forest.

Happy to hear that Hawaiian Honeycreepers (Finches) descent from Eurasian Rosefinches not American Honeyeaters.
Awesome ❣️

Yeah
Long ago, the Hawaiian birds lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the mosquitos attacked.
Always best

I hope you stay healthy for the rest of the week. Thank you.

The story of a critically endangered bird desperately looking for a mate in the same rain forrest where so many other beautiful species have been lost just wrecked me.

We know exactly how these beautiful birds feel when inflicted with a deadly disease. My empathy for them!

Bring it attention to state capture and protect them from distinctions and grow them enclosed habit area until we can help grow more of our birds to population Yes mosquito is real issues in hawaii.I guess it's only we able to see and keep them from distinction.
*I went birding in Oahu and all I saw was non native birds*
Five Steps Can Uses For Climate Protection:
Protest forests.
Make a garden.
Weatherize your home.
Plant a tree.
Conserve water.

One word. Dragonfly’s
Let's make mosquitoes extinct!
They're food to many animals.
@@robertklotz9319 I thought they had done studies(in North America though) that the biomass of mosquitoes was found to be negligible in the diets of the creatures eating them.
We can easily replace mosquitoes with something else as food

What a cute bird. Thanks to Dr Crampton and her team for trying to save this bird.
We human beings are creating all these problems for other species. It’s sad to see. Eventually we change the environment so much that we lose the environment we need to survive, just as the saying goes: What goes around comes around.

Can you capture a few if those birds and vacinate them. Raise and release after vacination.
Bring in a million Dragonflies to fix the problem ❤ Not more mosquitos❤Straight Up
Get rid of all the mosquitoes genetically ...we could easily replace them in the food chain with something else
Viral Patel, look at bird bath
If the whole environment changes, focusing on single actions such as fighting with mosquitoes is not going to help.
Wuauu!!! que maravilloso trabajo tienes 👌 Se nota tu pasión y esmero con esta aves y en buscar la causa de lo que les ocurre. Te felicito por tu gran tabaco y aporte por la supervivencia de las especies 👏👏😉👍

Or maybe this planet needs fewer people. The population has doubled since I was in high school, 4 billion to almost 8 billion. We don't want to admit we are part of the problem for all other animals.

If we want to know why creation is suffering and how to fix it, the first logical thing would be to ask the creator and not to ly about his existence.
No! Were the ones who brought the malaria to the birds not ask the creator we should be ashamed of ourselves

Sounds tough, hang in there birds 😆 white people love their animals. Step over a homeless man to walk into a boutique dog food cafe.
nO - i THINK YOU'RE WRONG AND OVER-REACTING - are you still alive - don't think you have anything to worry about
Do you not care about animals?
Kiba is right your probably care about humanity than animals
