We learned a lot as we planned for this show.  Some of the things we did in the past when featuring Kanani were not really done in the right way.  But we know better now and so we are trying to do better!  

Kanani Akina is very committed to saving the monk seal, which is in great danger in her state of Hawaii.  If you want to learn more about what is being done to help these seals, check out these sites:
