Punishingly Intricate

those are mongoose.

RIKKI TIKKI TAVIs! I dreamt about them the other night.

Ha! The mongooses have invaded your dreams!

In the less trafficky places in the islands, the mongoose tend to hang out on the roads and nap. The mongoose exhibit at the Honolulu Zoo has a bit of asphalt roadway and guardrail crossing the corner of the exhibit. Too funny.

Yeah, the mongoose were not so much of a brilliant idea. Hawaii is sadly overrun with mammals that oughtn't to be there.

Not to mention the bajillions of unique native species that have been extinguished. critters and such that shouldn't be in Hawaii

Now I'm getting a sad Hawaii-That-Was vibe.

A pure unspoiled Hawaii would be otally without mammals, right? Not even ninjas?

Not even ninjas, -t.

But the Polynesian settlers brought dogs and pigs with them, at the least, and then the Europeans showed up with rats, goats, cats, and so forth, and the damage really escalated.

I think Hawaiian Monk Seals woulda still chosen to live there, but I think they may be the only ones considered native mammals.

Oh, duh, lori. I forgot about the monk seals. And me an environmental specialist. Heh.

They are, of course, hugely endangered.

Monk seals only. That fact could come in handy.

Excellent.
