Nice Jun. Thanks for sharing something that we do not have in the Philippines, nothing even close to it. The Filipinos have a different orientation with regards to wildlife. We are doing our best to reverse that but we're too far behind. Destruction of our forest is so fast that it is already scary when we think of the next generation who would probably just rely on video footages, if there are any, to enjoy them. Maybe they will not enjoy them.  lyd |

Thanks Telyds Yes out here, we are lucky to have a very strict regulations regarding hunting regulations and harsh punishment to those who break them. Unfortunately without giving the locals an alternative means to feed or make money from the wildlife. We are in danger of losing or reversing the problem. While traveling in Laos. I've heard of a place called the Gibbon Experience. I think this is one example we could introduce to Philippines to divert the local energies from negative to positive. Although I think the zip lines are a little too Hollywood, and too touristy for my taste. But their intentions are in the right place. Whatever means to save the forest right? Don't give up. The kids need more people like you ;D |
