- In the first episode "Hawaiian Native Forest | Trail Talk with Ryan Chang" of this new series, we are taking a hike with Ryan Chang a Hawaii born and raised, Hawaiian native forest enthusiast. He will tell us about why all these native plants are important, how to take care of the a'ina (land) and why we should appreciate every moment what we spend hiking in these beautiful native plants habitats like the Ka'ala Bog.
This video will have a lot of information, so hopefully you will appreciate all the hard work put in it.

Thank you sooooo much!!!!!🌱💚🌱
Thank You for watching🤙🏻
I learned a lot…THANK YOU for sharing.
I am happy to hear that! Mahalo!
Thank you for posting this video. I love all your videos and hope to see even more like this one.
Thank You! I will definitely work on more of these kind of educative videos.
Ohhhh man I could watch educational videos like this all day. Thanks for posting it. A very well done to Ryan! Its so important to educate and help people see what a critical role we all play in keeping these majestic places in a state of natural balance. Hope to see you guys on the trails! PS: Can you consider doing an episode like this covering edible/medicinal flora in our forests?
Much Mahaloz Durran!
That was the purpose, to educate people. It was very easy to work with Ryan, he is such a great, knowledgeable guy! Thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely consider it!
Awesome episode!
Thank You!😀👍🏻
Really great episode! I loved learning about the plants and more.
Mahalo Angie! I am happy you enjoyed it!
01:19 Palapalai is Microlepia strigosa.
05:34 Uluhe is Dicranopteris linearis. It outcompetes many non-native ferns.
06:20 Hupu’u is Cibotium menziesii.
Great video, very informative!! Thank you Ryan for sharing your knowledge. Hungaro, need more videos like this one. Aloha Darren Ito!!
Mahaloz Marcus! Yes, very informative!
I will work on some new ideas🤙🏻
Very interesting! Thanks for spreading the knowledge!
Glad it was helpful! I am very happy to share this! By the way, I was wondering where did you disappear, didn't see a comment from you for a while :D
@@HungaroExplorer yes life is very busy lately. But I still watch your videos and always give them a like 🙂
I appreciate that🤙🏻😀
Mahalo for a great hike to Ka'ala--one of my favorite places. I have brought many people up here mostly from the Wai'anae side. Aloha
Mahalo David! Ka’ala is truly a special place!
When I went to Oahu, I could've sworn they told us that all plants had been brought to Hawaii and that none were originally there because the islands sprang up from volcanoes? 🤔
Thank you for the feedback. First of all Who was they? :) Volcanoes have their own ecosystem, so we definitely have native plants here in Hawaii. Some of them one a kind or specific to a certain island.
I hope this video gives you an idea about some of the most important native species.
Mahalo
@@HungaroExplorer thanks for the info! I can't remember exactly where we heard that but it seems like it was during some kind of little history lesson on a tour or something. Or maybe at the airport when they were telling us about not bringing invasive species of plants onto the island. I can't remember but maybe I misunderstood them. I do remember them giving the history of the island and they were talking about different trees on the islands that were brought in to Hawaii and grown and harvested.
You are correct that every island was barren and were eventually colonized by plants and animals from somewhere. But the beauty of the origin disperals unassisted by humans is the biota needed certain traits to make that arduous crossing. It has taken the sum of human ingenuity and resources to fly when when we don't have wings and at speeds that no animal has match; and it still takes us 5 hours to get here to Hawai'i. Plants and animals travel at a mere fraction of that speed; and yet they still arrived. Without meal service even! But once they got here, free of competition, they got to do weird and wonderful things. Think of the Galapagos with it's giant tortoises and marine iguanas. Well ever island ecosystem in the world was like the Galapagos before humans altered them. It's one reason why we work so hard to save the remaining survivors now.
@@sebastianmarquez3014 it's amazing..
God's creation! 🙏
You're absolutely right. The islands rose from the ocean so all plants on the islands had to arrive from somewhere else.
The reason there are 'native plants' is because those pioneer species evolved into something completely unique that can be found nowhere else. Making it a native Hawaiian species.
Nice one Ryan. Joel once showed me that emarginata type of uluhe above Pearl City once; A lone hairy frond amongst normal f. linearis.
Did you have to do any sterilization to your gear before you entered the area? I really appreciated the footage of an invasive forest versus a native forest.
Thank you Roanne for the question.
No we didn’t have to do any sterilization. At the entrance of the bog there is a shoe cleaning station, where you brush off the bottom of your shoe before you enter.
@@HungaroExplorer thanks! I’m glad they have it available.
Where is the line between Native and non native? What is the cutoff date?
Non native were introduced by people but some got here by traveling birds. Hard to define a timeline…
Which is your favorite native plant?
Clermontia kakeana :)
I thought there were no spiders in Hawaii? Or was it snakes?
There are spiders in Hawaii. A lot if native ones which are only exists in Hawaii!
Technically, yes, we have snakes, but not necessarily in the way you’re probably thinking of. It is like an earthworm and it is called The Blind Snake.
Alani
That one is easy to remember :)
