Uau (Hawaiian Petrel Bird) Plush

Kahoʻokele means The Wanderer. The ʻuaʻu (Hawaiian petrel) is an endemic pelagic seabird that nests in burrows high on Hawaiian volcanic slopes. The Hawaiian name sounds like the call the parent birds make when returning to the nesting burrow (squeeze the plush to hear the call). Navigating to and from nests at night, ʻuaʻu travel thousands of miles to forage at sea before returning to feed their single chick. Both adults and chicks are vulnerable to human-introduced predators like cats, mongooses, and rats.    Ages 3+ Surface wash only 10 inches (bill to tail) x 6 inches (wing to wing)
