On top of that they only had one partner for life.

Depressing facts about the last years of this species: -The last female and male pair of birds in this species were found and kept preserved on an island. However, two typhoons ravaged the island later on, killing the female. -The last recording of the male’s mating call was in 1987. -After the recording finished, the guy who recorded it replayed it after the male flew off to listen to it. Apparently, the male then flew back, thinking that the recording of his own call was a female. -When that last male died we not only lost this species, we lost an entire family of birds. This species was the last of its family of birds, meaning it couldnt even find any mates that looked even remotely like it, it was a mere remnant of its kind.

It’s weird to think that kauai birds only really went extinct due to the introduction of mosquitos and rats. The mosquitos carried diseases which quickly killed of much of the population, forcing them higher and higher up the mountains (this is still a huge problem with extant Hawaiian species, they are forced further up the mountains each year where the mosquitos can’t survive, but warming of the climate is allowing the mosquitos further up the mountain).

“Hello? Anyone? I don’t want to be alone…” The Kauai O’o was an amazing bird, with a haunting yet beautiful call, and a terrible fate. Hopefully all those birds can sing their songs in heaven, where we can’t hurt them any more. There isn’t even much of a chance to revive them, as the Kauai O’o was the last of its family Mohoidae, meaning there are no close relatives at all to the Kuaui O’o. They are all gone. Mosquito and rat borne disease killed their populations, forcing them into the mountains. Human deforestation cause them to lose their homes. And from our mistakes, the Kauai O’os have joined the list of 900+ species that have been declared extinct. Never again will the world hear the wondrous song of the Kauai O’o, and we have lost so much for it. Let this terrible loss be a lesson, that you cannot replace what isn’t there, that extinction is a permanent; a fate no creature should be forced to. The Kauai O’o’s call is a duet, with pauses where another bird should respond. But now, it’s a song sung to a lost kind. A song that will never be whole again.

Such a beautiful voice that won’t ever be sung again in nature.

For instance, all Swallows and Martins make up one family that is about 22 million years old. Crows, Ravens, and Jays also make up one family that is about 17 million years old.

This was beautifully made. Mahalo. One of our Bay Area Hula Teachers wrote an Oli(chant) for the anniversary of the overturning of the Hawaiian kingdom using the manu O'o as the center of it.. Rayleen Lancaster wrote "Au Hea Wale Ana 'Oe" Where are you? The O'o is looking for a mate. Back then, the scientists had recorded the O'o's song and played it. The last bird came to find where the call was coming from. He came each year for a few years and after that never came again. Kumu Rayleen said that we are now the only voice for the manu O'o and we must speak for him. Her Oli was gorgeous and her halau danced it. Not a dry eye in the auditorium in Oakland. The O'o was a large bird with yellow feathers under it's wings and legs. These feathers were plucked w/o hurting the bird and it was released to regrow its yellow feathers. Only royalty was presented with hats and capes with the precious yellow feathers in them. Ma Poina, manu O'o.

this wanna make me cry because it was my favorite bird and always be😭

A hauntingly true recording, reimagined and retold. Animation has the power to tell a story to the world, the medium to translate the hardships of others into human language and expression, and the magic to move us.

This might just be my favorite animated short film of the year. The way the threats to endemic island species that people bring, from mosquito-borne disease to rats and cats that hunt small species to habitat destruction for development are conveyed so efficiently and evocatively through the animation is BRILLIANT! This is exactly what we need to have more depictions of in media to convince people to protect our ecosystems. The sound design and music are incredible; the film would not be half as effective without them, and the storytelling is clear, concise, and heart-breaking. My favorite creative choice is the build-up to the final death by flashing portraits of iconic extinct species over the years at an increasingly rapid pace (although I might be a bit biased on that front because it's got a thylacine in it, haha). By the way, I went back and watched all your other uploads and GOODNESS you've improved so much! I love your art style; the characters are expressive and yet realistic at the same time, and the backgrounds convey the richness of nature while not feeling overly detailed or impossible to animate. You've gotten much better at keeping animated forms consistent within shots, and also your ability to craft stories through visuals and voice-over has come a long way since Isolation. (The dialogue is a TAD on-the-nose in that one 0_0, although I appreciate the message.) In any case, I can't give this film enough praise, and you've earned my subscription!

We as a species, are truly the worst things to ever walk this planet... This bird may be gone along with the list of extinct animals, but think of it like this... How many more animals have went extinct because of us but we've not recorded it? They say things like griffins, dragons, unicorns, and other mythical creatures existed, and perhaps they have, but we will never know, only say they were mythical fantasy creatures rather than actual animals, because the only history we have of them is word of the mouth, and descriptions can be misconstrued orally. We will never know the full amount of damage and destruction we've truly wrecked on every other living thing on this planet, the majestic, mighty, beautiful, and maybe even terrifying lives we have crushed, silenced, and wiped out, snuffed out, all because of us. We are worse than even the most lethal of parasites. We are not animals. We are a disease infecting this planet.

After Jim Jacobi recorded the final half of this bird's song, he played it back to hear what he'd gotten. To his surprise, the bird flew back to the sound of his own voice. At that point, the bird probably wasn't looking for a female to mate. He probably was just looking for a familiar face and voice.

Thank you so much especially to the creators of this video. For explaining the repercussions of humans lifestyle in such a nuanced way!

That sound gives so much sadness. It's on a with the picture of that last lion species, the one lone male walking on a snowy path, probably looking for it's kind.

I got this recommended after watching one video about this bird but I didn't expect to see an animation of it. It's really sad to see this and especially knowing this could happen someday to anyone but amazing job in animating this and telling the story, I liked it.

this is such a hearbreaking story told with a beautiful animation

If Thanos wasn't fictional, i'd be okay with getting snapped out of existence.

This came out so great Hanah ❤️❤️

Thanks!

I just wanted to say this was very moving. Thank you

Now this is the very definition of an unfinished symphony

I understand that it's saddening and thank you for showing this to all of us...

I really loved your animation but my heart can’t keep on watching this.. i have your video a thumbs up

Life isn’t a fairy tale. Not every story has a happy ending. This bird is gone and it’s gone forever because of us. And that is reality.

The animation is actually great, this deserve more view than it is currently

man i thought it had a good ending like go to heaven and see other Kauai O'os

OMG I almost cried!! Such a touching story of an Oo trying to find his lost love. Sadly he will never find her.

This so heartbreaking and beautiful. It really hurts and makes me wonder why humanity is so incredibly destructive..

This definitely broke my heart tears came out and the part where I cried a lot was the death where portraits of extinct species were shown and the Kaua'i ōō will start crying and die this animation is beautiful and leaves a message too cute, I love you You won my subscription and my like.

I don’t think I’ve ever been so sad, this hurts 😢💔

This is one of my favorite animations on this platform

I've never been sadder in my life after watching this

I couldn’t stop crying.. 😭😭😭

us the humans don't deserve title of "Gods favorite creation" because we killing the earth 😔😔😔😔

i’d love for this bird to come back.

This is so beautiful and well done. I love the animations of other native species. This made me cry ugly tears dude.

It had such a beautiful song...we really hurt so much that we touch huh? 💔
