ʻIʻiwi and koliʻī

Description

The ʻIʻiwi (Hawaiian honeycreeper) and the Koʻolī (Scaevola glabra) flower share a mutualistic relationship, where the bird’s actions directly enable the flower’s reproduction, symbolizing the importance of choice and agency in reproductive processes. This relationship mirrors the need for humans to have autonomy and access to resources that support reproductive rights, emphasizing that thriving ecosystems—like thriving societies—depend on the freedom to make decisions that ensure survival and growth.
