何でワラビーがハワイに?
そのお話は↓
The story of how the wallabies established themselves in Hawaii is something out of a Pixar movie. Native to Australia and Papua New Guinea, the wallaby was introduced to Hawaii’s wildlife about 100 years ago after a pair living in the captivity of a private Hawaii zoo on Oahu escaped and hopped away into the brush of Kalihi Valley. Ever since then a small colony of the marsupials formed in Kalihi making rare appearances here and there.
There are believed to be about 40 all together, but only a handful of sightings have been reported in the past century which often calls into question their livelihood. That isn’t an invitation to go out seeking them in Kalihi for observation purposes—they occupy what’s private property and a passage through a military base.
After this week’s video though, it looks like they’re still going strong.
