The 0ceanic Institute, an affiliate of Hawaii Pacific University, operates the adjoining Sea Life Park with educational exhibits of all forms of sea life, including trained dolphin performances. The sea bird rehabilitation unit rehabilitates between 200 - 400 sick and injured sea birds a year. A semi-tame colony of Red-footed Boobies, began with a few rehabilitated injured birds, now breeds in the park. This is one of the wild semi-tame Red-footed Boobies which forage at sea and retune to roost in park trees.
