Representing strength, majesty, and nobility, the lion's image is often incorporated into Hawaiian art and folklore, reflecting its universal appeal and timeless significance.

Whether depicted in traditional artwork or embraced as a symbol of pride and determination, the lion serves as a reminder of Hawaii's interconnectedness with the wider world and its ability to find strength and inspiration in diverse cultural influences.
