Hawaiian Mamo
The Hawaiian Mamo is a small, extinct bird that was native to the Hawaiian Islands. It belonged to the family of honeycreepers and was known for its striking yellow and black plumage. The bird primarily fed on nectar from native flowers, playing a crucial role in pollination within its ecosystem.
The Hawaiian Mamo was last seen in the early 20th century, with habitat loss and introduced predators contributing to its decline. Conservation efforts for other native species, such as the Hawaiian Honeycreeper, continue to highlight the importance of protecting Hawaii's unique biodiversity.
