What Can You Do?

Many organizations, along with the Philippine government, are committed to promoting and enforcing conservation of the Philippine Eagle. The World Wildlife Fund has outlined not only the endangerment of this species, but of the ecological diversity of the entire region, listing the island of Luzon as endangered. National Geographic brought attention the the critical endangerment of these magnificent creatures in 2008, providing insight to major threats as well as captive breeding programs and how to help. The non-profit Philippine Eagle Foundation provides up to date information and education programs to help promote the conservation of these eagles, as well as awareness about their dire situation. The IUCN Redlist details the history of the species' endangered listing and its progress toward recovery.


When it comes to conservation any little amount helps. You as an individual can always contribute something toward a good cause, whether it is volunteering your time, or making donations to organizations that are committed to conservation. Non-profit organizations and NGOs can always use continued funding and support to continue the amazing work that they do preserving endangered species and their habitats.
