BURAUEN, Leyte – A pair of Philippine Eagles were translocated here on June 11 as part of the Philippine Eagle Foundation program to regenerate their population in the wild.
PHILIPPINE Eagle Foundation Director for Operations Dr. Jayson Ibañez and animal keeper Dominic Tadena carry a pair of Philippine Eagles upon arrival in Barangay Kabagna, Burauen, Leyte.
The translocation of the eagles is part of their efforts to reintroduce their population in the ancient nesting site of the region, the PEF official said. The last time a pair of eagles was seen in Leyte was around 2007. An eagle was also seen in the area in 2006, before a typhoon hit. The pair of eagles were airlifted through a Philippine Air Force C-295 cargo plane from Davao City to Tacloban City on Tuesday morning.
