- Species conservation

Hawaiian monk seals are one of the rarest seal species in the world, and most people will never have a chance to see one in the wild. On our virtual tour, you’ll have the chance to visit Ke Kai Ola, our dedicated hospital for Hawaiian monk seals, and travel throughout the Hawaiian Archipelago to see monk seals in their natural environment. You’ll also discover ways you can help conserve Hawaiian monk seals no matter where you live in the world.
Take the ‘Ohana Challenge by downloading our family-friendly activity guide and participating in three challenges at home to deepen your family’s commitment to ocean conservation.
