Hāʻawi ka Moana a Na ka Moana Lawe…

Na Wendy Williams

Hāʻawi ka moana, a lawe aku ke kai…

A ma kekahi ʻano, i nā makahiki, ua kūpono nā mea a pau, i ka hapa nui o ka manawa. Akā pehea pehea e hana ai kēia?

Ma ka ʻaha kūkā i hala iho nei ma Vienna e pili ana i ka nui o nā lio feral honua, ua kūkākūkā ʻo Philip McLoughlin kanaka geneticist i kāna noiʻi i hoʻolālā ʻia i kēia nīnau mega ma ke aʻo ʻana i kahi mokupuni liʻiliʻi ma kahi o 300 mau kilomita ma ka hikina hema o Halifax, Kanada.

ʻO ka mokupuni ʻo Sable, he paka ʻāina ʻo Kanada i kēia manawa, ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi ma mua o kahi puʻupuʻu o ke one, ʻoi aku ka pōʻino, ma luna o ka ʻĀkelanika ʻĀkau. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻo kahi mokupuni i waena o kēia kai huhū i waena o ka hoʻoilo he wahi pilikia ia no nā mammals aloha ʻāina.

Eia naʻe, ke ola nei nā pūʻali lio liʻiliʻi ma ʻaneʻi no kekahi mau haneli mau makahiki, waiho ʻia ma laila e kahi Bosetona kūpono i nā makahiki ma mua o ke kipi ʻana o ʻAmelika.

Pehea e ola ai na lio? He aha kā lākou e ʻai ai? Ma hea lākou e malu ai i ka makani hoʻoilo?

A he aha ka mea i loko o ka honua e hāʻawi aku ai ke kai i kēia mau mammals ʻāina beleaguered?

Manaʻo ʻo McLoughlin i ka loaʻa ʻana o nā pane i kēia a me nā nīnau like he nui i nā makahiki he 30 e hiki mai ana.

Loaʻa iā ia hoʻokahi manaʻo hoihoi.

I loko o nā makahiki i hala iho nei, ua ʻōlelo ʻia ua lilo ʻo Sable Island i wahi ʻoi nui loa e hoʻopaʻa ai i ka sila ma nā wahi ʻē aʻe o ka ʻĀkelanika ʻĀkau. I kēlā me kēia kauwela, hānau ʻia a mālama ʻia kā lākou mau keiki ma nā kahakai one o ka mokupuni. Ma muli o ke ʻano o ka mokupuni he 13 mau mile kuea wale nō, hiki iaʻu ke noʻonoʻo i nā pae decibel i kēlā me kēia pūnāwai a me ke kauwela.

Pehea ka hana a na lio i keia haunaele pili sila? ʻAʻole ʻike maopopo ʻo McLoughlin i kēia manawa, akā ua aʻo ʻo ia ua piʻi ka nui o nā lio ma muli o ka hoʻonui ʻana o nā sila.

He kuhi wale anei keia? A i ʻole he pilina?

Manaʻo ʻo McLoughlin e hānai ana nā meaʻai mai ka moana i nā lio ma o ka hoʻololi ʻia ʻana o nā sila i mea fecal e hoʻomomona ai i ka mokupuni a hoʻonui i nā mea kanu. ʻO ka hoʻonui ʻia ʻana o nā mea kanu, ʻōlelo ʻo ia, hiki ke hoʻonui i ka nui o nā meaʻai a i ʻole ka nui o nā meaʻai o ka ʻai, ʻo ia hoʻi e hoʻonui ai i ka nui o nā foal e hiki ke ola….

A pela aku a pela aku.

ʻO ka mokupuni ʻo Sable kahi ʻōnaehana liʻiliʻi e pili ana i ke ola. He kūpono ia no nā ʻano pilina pili i manaʻo ʻia e McLoughlin e aʻo ai i nā makahiki e hiki mai ana. Ke kakali nei au i kekahi mau ʻike hohonu a koʻikoʻi i ke ʻano o ka pae ʻana i nā mammals e hilinaʻi i ke kai no ko mākou ola ʻana.

ʻO Wendy Williams, ka mea kākau o "Kraken: The Curious, Exciting, and Slightly Disturbing Science of Squid," e hana ana ma nā puke ʻelua e hiki mai ana - "Horses of the Morning Cloud: The 65-Million-Year Saga of the Horse-Human Bond," a me “The Art of Coral,” he puke e nānā ana i ka wā i hala, kēia manawa a me ka wā e hiki mai ana o nā ʻōnaehana koʻa o ka honua. Ke aʻo pū nei ʻo ia i kahi kiʻiʻoniʻoni e hana ʻia e pili ana i ka hopena o ke kaiapuni o ke kūkulu ʻana iā Cape Wind, ka mahiʻai makani mua o ʻAmelika.
