## Resource

A newly born Hawaiian monk seal pup on Oahu has been officially named Pōhaku, meaning “stone” in Hawaiian — chosen by fifth graders at Kahuku Elementary who wanted to honor the pup’s grandmother, Rocky. The Hawaii Marine Animal Response celebrated the naming on social media, crediting the school community for helping welcome this endangered pup into the world and fostering deeper public connection and awareness.
