Laysan albatross (Makana)
© Monterey Bay Aquarium

Laysan albatross (Makana)

Makana is a Laysan albatross from the Northwestern Hawaiian Island of Midway. She came to the Monterey Bay Aquarium in 2006, after she injured her wing and was unable to survive in the wild. Makana appears daily in a presentation that helps visitors learn about the threats that albatrosses and other seabirds face from plastics pollution.


Makana means "gift" in Hawaiian and this special bird inspires us to remember to "reduce, reuse and recycle" so we can help all ocean wildlife like Makana.
