But every year, much larger waves rise out of the ocean.

They're generated by underwater landslides and earthquakes.

As tsunamis strike the coast, rafts of vegetation can be cast adrift.
当海啸袭击海岸时，植物漂筏可能随海水漂离岛屿
Perhaps animals were caught up in those rafts too.

Could this have been the answer to how these animals made it to Fiji?
