Summary:
Humans have introduced new species of plants and animals since they first arrived on the Hawai’ian islands, and these invaders have devastated many local species, including birds known as the honeycreepers. Now, countermeasures to mitigate the threats of predators and another invasive species--a mosquito that carries avian malaria--are helping to protect these amazing, endangered birds.
