The Akiki bird (White-browed Crake) faces several predators in its natural habitat, including:
1.Birds of Prey: Raptors such as hawks and eagles may hunt Akiki birds, especially when they venture out into open areas.
2.Snakes: Various snake species, particularly those that inhabit wetlands, can pose a threat to young or unsuspecting Akiki birds.
3.Mammals: Small mammals, such as feral cats and mongooses, may prey on Akiki birds, especially their eggs and chicks.
4.Larger Birds: Other larger bird species, including herons and larger rails, may also prey on juvenile or vulnerable Akiki birds.
5.Humans: Habitat destruction and hunting can significantly impact Akiki populations, leading to increased vulnerability to natural predators.
