Song of an Extinct Bird (Song of the Last Kauai Oo) - Music Box

The Kauai Oo (moho braccatus) was a bird native to Hawai. It went extinct in 1982. The song of the last male was recorded. This is his song, played on a music box. This is a tribute to a bird we will never hear again, an homage to the importance of remembering the beauty of nature that we are eliminating and destroying. A faint cry, urging this destructive system to stop. #kauaioo #kauai #lastmale #kauaioosong #mohobraccatus #musicbox #ecology #extinction #hawaii
