Are there any mammals (other than seals) at all that are native to Hawaii?

Poor wording: the transition didn't happen in 2007.

True

It doesn't help that for most of the geological periods the Hawaiian islands either didn't exist or were sterile lumps of volcanic rock.

DO NOT eat the dead fish you find along river banks during a drought.
