  • Building a Legacy of Animal Welfare Excellence
    Building a Legacy of Animal Welfare Excellence. Kitsap Humane Society’s 2018 Impact Report We’re still building ... and there’s a lot more to come. A Message from our Executive Director and Board President hen we rescued and saved the lives of 36 animals from a hoarding situation in 2018, our community donated generously for their medical care and every pet was adopted Winto a loving home. Saving more lives is what we are about. And it’s not possible without you. When we came to KHS in 2012, we heard loud and clear that KHS needed to do more: rescue more animals, save more lives, build a better shelter. We listened. Since then, we have increased our intake of animals by over 50 percent and our lifesaving rate is now 97 percent - our highest ever. Every animal touches our hearts. But our work is also about ensuring a legacy of animal welfare excellence for our community, and for the tens of thousands of animals who will arrive at our shelter in the years ahead. Our immediate goal is completing our $8.5 million capital campaign. With our community’s generous financial support, we plan to open our new Pet Adoption Center in July, and then get to work rebuilding and converting our old facility into a new Pet Lifesaving Center in 2020, anchored by an expanded Veterinary Medicine and Surgery Center. Our vision for the future goes beyond a building. We will continue to elevate the level of veterinary medicine we provide to animals in need; expand spay/neuter programs; offer canine training classes to the public; expand humane education; help more elderly citizens keep their pets; and more.

  • Vectors and Navigating a Voyaging Canoe
    Vectors and navigating a voyaging canoe Written by Chantel Chang Part 1: Introduction and History This lesson plan will teach about addition of vectors with application in early Polynesian navigational practices. It is based in ethnomathematics because it demonstrates how mathematics is related to the local culture, history, and environment (D’Ambrosio, 2001, p. 8). Archaeologists believe that the Polynesians were the first inhabitants of Hawaiʻi and arrived around A.D. 500 (Finney, 1979). Over a quarter million Polynesians were living in Hawaiʻi’s eight main islands when Captain James Cook arrived in Hawaiʻi, in 1778. The Polynesians traveled all over the South Pacific in voyaging canoes to places such as Samoa, New Zealand, and Rapa Nui. The Polynesians were outstanding seafarers. They discovered and created colonies on almost every island in the South Pacific. Without the use of any instruments, the Polynesians were able to navigate through hundreds and even thousands of miles of open ocean to discover new lands. The Polynesians developed colonies on the newly discovered islands. The voyaging canoes were used to transport people, food, water, and domesticated plants and animals since many of the island were resource-poor. As a result of Polynesian voyaging, the Polynesian islands were united. During the colonization period, compasses, navigational charts, the spherical coordinate system of latitude and longitude did not exist. The Polynesians were highly skilled at using the stars, sun, moon, ocean swells, and migratory patterns of birds to navigate through the vast ocean (Finney, et al, 1986). At night, the stars were used to determine location because they hold their position in the sky.

  • Mass Migration and the Polynesian Settlement of New Zealand
    J World Prehist DOI 10.1007/s10963-017-9110-y Mass Migration and the Polynesian Settlement of New Zealand 1 2 1 Richard Walter • Hallie Buckley • Chris Jacomb • Elizabeth Matisoo-Smith2 Ó The Author(s) 2017. This article is an open access publication Abstract This paper reintroduces the concept of mass migration into debates concerning the timing and nature of New Zealand’s settlement by Polynesians. Upward revisions of New Zealand’s chronology show that the appearance of humans on the landscape occurred extremely rapidly, and that within decades set- tlements had been established across the full range of climatic zones. We show that the rapid appearance of a strong archaeological signature in the early 14th century AD is the result of a mass migration event, not the consequence of gradual demographic growth out of a currently unidentified earlier phase of settlement. Mass migration is not only consistent with the archaeological record but is supported by recent findings in molecular biology and genetics. It also opens the door to a new phase of engagement between archaeological method and indigenous Maori and Polynesian oral history and tradition. Keywords Polynesia Á New Zealand Á Colonisation Á Migration Á Indigenous history Introduction The Austronesian colonisation of the Pacific commenced around 3500 BP and culminated, nearly three millennia later, in a 3000 km journey south of tropical East Polynesia into the temperate and sub-Antarctic waters of New Zealand.

  • Hawaiian Star Compass Wa'a Alaka'i Hōkūle'a E'ala
    Voyaging Petroglyph Artwork “We were born to be free and the canoe is a symbol of that freedom because it allowed us to go where we needed to go to exercise our beliefs and culture. Everybody on the canoe is important; everybody has a job with all of those jobs working in unity to accomplish the voyage. The canoe is a symbol of coming together and for that we honor the canoe.” ~ Kauila Clark, Native Hawaiian Artist HAWAIIAN STAR COMPASS Traditional Polynesian navigators depended on all of the natural elements in order to navigate. They used the stars and when those were obscured they used other indicators such as the waves, the wind, the birds, dolphins and other sea life. That created a close tie between the people and nature and reinforced their trust in Io, the Creator. Traditional Navigators today must develop that same close connection to nature. The Hawaiian star compass, developed by Master Navigator Nainoa Thompson, is not a physical compass, but a mental construct that helps the navigator memorize the rising and setting positions of stars, flight paths of birds, directions of the waves and other signs in nature needed to find their way. In the center of the Hawaiian star compass is Manu (Bird) with his beak, tail and outstretched wing-tips pointing midway between the four cardinal directions. WA‘A The wa‘a is the Hawaiian word for the traditional carved canoe with the distinctive outrigger (spars attached to a shaped log or float parallel to the hull) that helped stabilize the canoe.
