Extinction Silences the Chorus Kauai’s native forest birds are dropping like flies due to mosquito-borne avian malaria and introduced predators. <img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/34039416_15427630600_r.jpeg" alt="34039416_15427630600_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" /> Help us combat these threats by investing in much-needed research and management. Here is how you can help: $1000 Support an intern for a month Fighting disease is labor-intensive! Interns help us survey for and control mosquitos and catch birds to outfit them with transmitters, while learning valuable professional skills. $500 Pay for a helicopter flight Help our dedicated staff and equipment get to remote field locations to carry out research and control invasive mosquitoes and rats. $250 Buy a radiotransmitter Tiny transmitters attached temporarily to birds allow us to study their movement patterns and determine where they come into contact with mosquitoes. $100 Buy a mistnet We use mistnets to catch birds so that we can band them to study population dynamics, attach transmitters, and take samples for disease screening. $40 Fill a cannister with CO2 CO2 lures mosquitoes into traps. This type of field work helps us better understand mosquito distribution for future control effort. $10 Buy a bag of alfalfa When a female mosquito has eaten her fill, she tries to find nice “stinky” water to lay her eggs in. We use alfalfa to make stinky water for traps to catch these female. OUR PROJECTS PROJECT ʻAKEKEʻE COST $75,000 PER ANNUM ʻAkekeʻe are Critically Endangered (only 1000 birds remain) and exist only on Kauaʻi. Thier biggest threat appears to be avian malaria spread by mosquitos. This project funds expanded mosquito research and control, which represents the best hope of recovery for all of Kauaʻi’s honeycreepers. PROJECT PUAIOHI COST $65,000 PER ANNUM Puaiohi are also Critically Endangered and exist only on Kauaʻi. They number 500 individuals in the wild; population growth appears to be limited by invasive rats, which prey on females as they incubate their nests.  Since 2015 we have deployed 425 self-resetting rat traps in the heart of Puaiohi’s range to protect their nests. These amazing traps kill up to 22 rats before needing maintenance. This project funds extensive predator control in remote regions of the Alakaʻi. <img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/34039416_15427632850_r.jpeg" alt="34039416_15427632850_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" /> Learn more here: <a href="https://kauaiforestbirds.org/help-restore-the-symphony/">Kaua'i Forest Bird Recovery Project</a>  <a href="https://kauaiforestbirds.org/help-restore-the-symphony/"> </a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Vk-H1fBTQ&amp;t=30s">Introduction to Mosquito Research on Kaua'i</a><a href="https://kauaiforestbirds.org/help-restore-the-symphony/">  </a> Thank you for caring about Kaua'is native forest birds!
