KP2 Behaving Himself

Aloha Good People,
Here are some great shots of KP2 being good, probably cause he's sleeping. These shots were sent to Jenn from one of the good volunteers over on Molokai.... We thank you for the pictures and looking after little KP2.

KP2 Details -from Molokai

Aloha to all the KP2 fans--here is a brief update of his activity for the past couple days.

Well on thursday the Molokai Seal Team was alerted to KP's satellite activity on the east end of the island. A number of dedicated volunteers ventured out searching high and low for the little bugger and came up with nothing. So all the volunteers went home (disappointed) and hoping that he'd be found another day.
Well, low and behold he has been found in a very unique place--the wharf at Kaunakakai. Yep, he found himself a cozy little piece of concrete and he has been there since 9 p.m. Thursday evening. We were alerted to his whereabouts by the Molokai POLICE!!!! It's 9 p.m. on Thursday night--"Do you know where your Monk Seal IS???"Diane and I responded to his need for BOND and got him cordoned off and under strict observation. He has been under direct supervision since the call. During thursday evening KP was visited by the police a number of times checking on him. By the time Diane and I got there Friday a.m. he was one pooped monk seal. KP slept most of the morning only stirring to stretch or take care of business!
Lots of folks have come by to observe the little bugger--even the mayor of Molokai (in fact he has stopped by twice)The volunteers were busy giving folks information about KP and all were excited to see him. Well all most all, except for the fellow that does his morning walk around the area where KP was cordoned off. That fellow didn't like that he had to change his walking route. Oh well. KP was observed by many tourists and alot of kids, even a couple cute girls from Wisconsin.
As I close this report, KP is still at the wharf at Kaunakakai.
The volunteers continue to monitor his activities. So we'll let you know what happens tomorrow. Here are a couple photos of the little jail bird!!
P.S. don't worry ALL the appropriate authorities have been contacted and he is in good hands. fondly, val bloy--Molokai Monk Seal Volunteer

Meet Woo from Molokai

Aloha Donna,
Haven't sent you any photos for awhile. Thought you might enjoy this picture. This is WOO, he is one of youngsters here on Molokai. Today, we caught him in a rare mode--he was awake!! We usually find him in a deep sleep some where in the rocks. He watched us closely while we took photos and got his tag information. He quickly hit the sleep button as we were leaving the area. Nite, nite little WOO!!! Have a great one.
fondly, val and dianeMolokai

Molokai - (Monk Seal) Keiki

Well look at what are friends from Molokai found.... okay doesn't appear there are any tags, although one looks bleached .... are there any guesses as to who these little weeners might be... ?
Thank you Molokai friends your contributions are priceless! ~donna~
Aloha,
After a 2 week absence my friend Diane and I headed out in pursuit of our Molokai Monk Seals. Well it must have been keiki day as we observed 5 seals all under the age of 2. Three of the 5 seals were this years Molokai crop. We had such fun watching 2 of the weaners playing in the water with the 2 year old--they would later haul out for a much needed nap!!! The other 2 seals were in deep sleep mode the whole afternoon. Happy Thanksgiving to all from your friends of the seals on Molokai.
