The Maui News
A television special featuring an endangered native bird found only on Maui will debut on KHON2 this evening, the state Department of Land and Natural Resources announced.
Shot entirely on Maui, “Saving Kiwikiu Maui parrotbill on the brink,” tells the story of the small yellow honeycreepers that live only in high-elevation forests on windward Haleakala. The bird’s estimated population has dwindled to fewer than 150 individuals, putting them at a high risk of going extinct within a few years.
The documentary will air at 9:30 p.m. today on KHON2, with a replay on Channel 2 sister station KHII at 8 p.m. Sunday.
