ʻO nā kiʻi paʻi me kahi ʻīlio uē e lanakila ana i ka pūnaewele.
ʻO kahi ʻīlio i kapa ʻia ʻo Manuka me he ʻōpala lā i ka helehelena, akā ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ua ʻelemakule ia. Ma kahi o 20 ona mau makahiki, a ʻo kēia, e like me ka ʻōlelo a nā veterinarians, ma kahi o 140 mau makahiki o ke ola kanaka. Mai ka wā ʻelemakule ua hoʻomaka ʻo Manuka e ʻike a lohe maikaʻi ʻole. Mai kahi pipi i lilo i mea kaumaha no kona ʻohana, no laila i hoʻokahi lā weliweli i ʻelua mau makahiki i hala aku nei, hoʻolei wale ka mea nona ka holoholona i ke alanui.
Ua holoholo ʻo Manuka a puni ke kūlanakauhale no ka manawa lōʻihi e ʻimi ai i kāna kāne. Māmā, nāwaliwali, loaʻa nā ʻauwa! A ehia mau makaʻu aʻu e hoʻomanawanui ai ʻoiai e moe ana i ka pō ma ke alanui! ..

ʻO wai ka mea i ʻike i loko o ke poʻo o Manuka i kēlā manawa? Ua haki ke kaumaha o kahi ʻīlio i kāna mea liʻiliʻi a ua kuʻi i ka paʻakikī? A i ʻole he waimaka paha lākou o ka hauʻoli, mahalo no ke kōkua pilikino ʻole? ..
ʻAʻole ʻike ʻia pehea e pau ai kēia moʻolelo inā ʻaʻole ʻo Jong Hwan i puni. Ua paʻi kiʻi ke kanaka ʻōpio i kahi ʻīlio uē, a laila kau i nā kiʻi ma kahi ʻaoʻao Facebook e noi ana i kōkua no ka loaʻa ʻana o Manuka i hale hou.
I loko o kekahi mau hola, ua ʻike ʻia nā paʻi a John e kekahi mau kaukani poʻe. I kēia manawa, ua hoʻouna nā loea mai ka hoʻokumu aloha aloha o Frosted Faces i ka ʻīlio i kahi haukapila ʻo San Diego, kahi i ʻauʻau ai ka huʻa wai wela, a laila, ma lalo o ka nānā ʻana o nā mea manawaleʻa, hālāwai lākou me ka napoʻo ʻana o ka lā ma kahakai. Mai ia manawa mai, ua ʻokoʻa ka nānā ʻana o Manuka. Ua kū ʻo ia i ke kaumaha. A ua hana ʻo ia i ka mea kūpono! No ka mea ma hope o kekahi manawa ua loaʻa i kahi ʻīlio kahi ʻohana.
I kēia manawa maikaʻi ʻo Manuka. Noho hauʻoli ʻo ia i kona mau lā i ka mehana a me ka hōʻoluʻolu me nā mea nona. A ʻoiai ʻo ka ʻīlio i ka lohe a me nā pilikia o ka hihi, hauʻoli loa ia. A, ʻo ka mea nui, ʻaʻole ʻo ia e uē hou!
