The state bird of Hawaii is a 'nene,' and is found only on the islands of our 50th state. Which of the following is most closely related to a 'nene'?
Answer Canada goose
The Hawaiian name nene is derived from this bird's soft call, and it's thought that it evolved from the Canada goose, which it resembles. It's also related to the prehistoric giant Hawaii goose, which inhabited the island of Hawaii and was huge, at four times the size of the nene.
