They play a big role in pollinating many native plants and disperse seeds. In this art, the birds are fighting over the last few flowers left on the tree because all other flowers in that section of the forest are gone due to habitat loss. These lovely birds should be protected and saved, not only because they contribute to the overall health of the Hawaii ecosystem but also they are pleasing to look at and they can brighten up your day.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-fc343e5 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"fc343e5\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-57f5efe\" data-id=\"57f5efe\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-838c480 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"838c480\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"771\" height=\"1121\" src=\"https:\/\/www.endangered.org\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/05\/SeaOtterEddiaChelsea-Jadyn-Meng-Yang-771x1121.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-32737\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.endangered.org\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/05\/SeaOtterEddiaChelsea-Jadyn-Meng-Yang-771x1121.jpg 771w, https:\/\/www.endangered.org\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/05\/SeaOtterEddiaChelsea-Jadyn-Meng-Yang-336x488.jpg 336w, https:\/\/www.endangered.org\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/05\/SeaOtterEddiaChelsea-Jadyn-Meng-Yang-768x1116.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.endangered.org\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/05\/SeaOtterEddiaChelsea-Jadyn-Meng-Yang-1057x1536.jpg 1057w, https:\/\/www.endangered.org\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/05\/SeaOtterEddiaChelsea-Jadyn-Meng-Yang-1409x2048.jpg 1409w, https:\/\/www.endangered.org\/assets\/uploads\/2023\/05\/SeaOtterEddiaChelsea-Jadyn-Meng-Yang-scaled.jpg 1761w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 771px) 100vw, 771px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Chelsea, Eddia, and Jadyn; 5th, 6th and 8th Grades <\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c4a5326\" data-id=\"c4a5326\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9499c0f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9499c0f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>ARTISTS STATEMENT: Sea otters are beautiful animals and their brown furs are amazing, however, by the 1900s, sea otters had almost been extinct.
