A Bird Flies Again

Rare mascots can be like the Energizer Bunny and just keep on going and going. Below is a picture of Mana, the mascot from a 1994 Pride campaign in Western Samoa. Toni Tipama’a, the campaign manager, chose the endangered manumea (tooth-billed pigeon) to be the flagship species and mascot. And Mana has now been honored as the official mascot of the 2007 South Pacific Games. He recently made an appearance in a parade kicking off the build-up to the games.
