Artist's Comments

This majestic bird of prey is the Philippine Eagle (Pithecophaga jefferyi)

This eagle is endemic to the Philippines and can be found on four major islands: eastern Luzon, Samar, Leyte, and Mindanao, with most of the population living on Mindanao.

The species' numbers have slowly dwindled over the decades to the current population of 180 to 500 eagles. A series of floods and mud slides, caused by deforestation, further devastated the remaining population. The Philippine Eagle may soon no longer be found in the wild unless direct intervention is taken.

For more information on their conservation you can visit The Philippine Eagle Foundation website [link]

Special thanks to Mr. Neon Tomas Buenaflor Rosell II for allowing me to use his photo for reference.
