Tree goose (SciiFii)

The tree goose (Dendrochen arborea) is a species of duck, despite its name, that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout Hawaii to help boost biodiversity. The tree goose is a rather large, goose-like duck and is most closely related to the whistling ducks. The tree goose is a dominant waterbird of Hawaii, perching on trees and breeding there in large colonies, in a manner similar to the egrets and storks. The tree goose primarily feeds on aquatic vegetation, leaves, fruits, and seeds, although it can occasionally feed on fish to supplement its diet. The conservation status of the tree goose is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the tree goose's tolerance to many of the human activities.
