In Māori mythology, the demigod Maui transformed his brother-in-law Irawaru into the first dog. Different versions of the tale give varying reasons for why Maui did this, ranging from being jealous of Irawaru’s fishing skills to being annoyed by his gluttony. #MythologyMonday

In the version of Maui's story told by New Zealand's Māori people, the demigod was born premature, so his parents cast him into the sea. However, Maui survived and was discovered by his grandfather, the god of the seas, who cared for and protected him as he grew up. #FolkyFriday

Most work that's done on invasive species revolves around "control" -- making the pest species less of a problem in a given area.
My job focuses on unequivocal, verifiable eradication -- possible because I live on an island.
My target: the 1.5mm Wasmannia auropunctata, or Little Fire #Ant. And though reintroduction is a constant threat, I'm happy to say that on this particular island we are winning the battle. Wish the same was true for Oʻahu & Kauaʻi.
