DID YOU KNOW THAT?

One of the endemic species that can only be found in the forest ecosystems of Zambales is the TAPULAO SHREW RAT.

Illegal settlement and unsustainable utilization of resources by local communities have degraded Mt. Tapulao (Rivera and Paz-Alberto, 2020). Current misguided and disorganized ecotourism activities have also negative effects in the area obliging the local government to establish the mountain as a critical habitat strictly following the Republic Act 9147 or the Wildlife Act.

Conservation and protection of mangroves increases the interface between marine and terrestrial ecosystems, supporting unique fauna with high biodiversity by providing habitats, nurseries, shelter and feeding areas for various animals such as reptiles, mammals, fish, shrimps, and birds like collared kingfisher (Paz-Alberto et al., 2020).

The White-Collared Kingfisher used to be found mostly along the coasts and in mangroves, but now they hunt in freshwater wetlands, cultivated lands, gardens, and parks.

Locally, this species is thought to be in decline due to the ongoing destruction of mangrove forests for development.

Habitat loss and natural disasters may potentially pose a threat to small island populations.
