I hope you are all are doing well and had a nice weekend, then again can anyone tell the difference anymore? Barbara went through her files and came up with these two memories, one of Kekoa Alii RK72 and the other of Pohaku.
About a month after being weaned Kekoa Alii RK72 got himself into a situation on August 30th 2011. While swimming by his birth beach at Reef Runway he got stuck, in a giant tie wrap. Back in those days there was a handful of us that had clearance to access this area. THANK GOODNESS. Team Billand (as usual) were there to save the day. When they spotted him they immediately got the NOAA Team out.
It was a painless quick fix.! Then January 18th 2012 Team Billand found Pohaku at KoOlina. When they called it into NOAA they were told a team was going to come out to apply a bleach number and attach a transmitter. When Team showed up, they decided not to do anything in that she might be pregnant. However along withe NOAA team there was a film crew who came out with them. Not sure what was being filmed, at that time, could have been one of the national geographics series.
