Far to the west,
in the Solomon Islands,
lives an animal that
depends on another characteristic of volcanoes for its survival
Heat
Meet the megapode,
also known as the incubator bird
Megapodes work hard to find the perfect spot to lay their egg
And thanks to this island's volcanic springs,
that spot is just a foot or two below the sand,
where the temperature is an ideal 33 degrees
But some megapodes don't seem as keen to dig as others
and this can sometimes lead to fights
With the dispute,finally settled,
the victor lays an egg and covers it with sand
Parenting over,
the megapode leaves the time consuming job of incubation
to the volcano
While the megapode thrives on a volcano's heat,
back in Hawaii,
there's a creature that thrives on the exact opposite
