A campaign is underway in Easter Island to raise awareness about the vulnerability of sea turtles that inhabit the island and its waters.

A forest fire that tore through part of Easter Island has charred some of its fabled monumental carved stone figures, known as moai, authorities said Thursday.

A huge "Moai" statue, one of the iconic stone monuments from Rapa Nui or Easter Island has begun its journey back home.

New research from Binghamton University, State University of New York suggests that the demographic collapse at the core of the Easter Island myth didn't really happen.

Easter Island, a territory of Chile that lies some 4,000 kilometers (2,485 miles) west of that country’s coast, is world famous for its Moai statues, which are recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
