(Sound on!) The “Kauai O’o”, is a songbird from Kauai in the Hawaiian Islands that went extinct in 1987. It has been re-animated at SXSW in the virtual cinema in a VR artwork (this is a 2D version here), that attempts to bring this extinct bird back to life.

All that remains of the Kaua'i O'o are a few photos and this haunting song. The bird was last recorded in 1987, and habitat destruction and invasive species were the major causes of its demise. Today, 33 of Hawai'i's remaining 44 endemic birds are listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA); 10 of those have not been seen for decades and are likely extinct. These are reasons to keep the ESA strong! https://abcbirds.org/endangered-species-act-facing-own-extinction/ | American Bird Conservancy

The Kaua’i ‘O’o bird, native to Hawaii’s beautiful Kaua’i island, faced extinction due to human actions. The heartbreaking last call of the male bird was recorded in 1987. Habitat destruction, along with the threat of invasive species and diseases, played a devastating role in its decline. Despite valiant efforts to find more of its kind, the species was declared extinct. | History In Pictures

In 1987, the last Kaua'i 'O'o bird sang out his haunting song for a female that would never come. Soon he would be extinct. Tragically, 90% of Hawaii's unique bird species are gone forever. Of those that remain, 70% are critically endangered. #birds #extinct #endangered #conservation #animals #nature #wildlife #protect #hawaii | Jeff Corwin
