PHILIPPINES-ENVIRONMENT-CONSERVATION-EAGLE


This handout photo taken on March 7, 2010 and released March 8, by the Philippine Eagle foundation shows a baby Philippine eagle (Pithecophaga jefferyi), called chick number 23 resting after it hatched at the foundation's facility in Davao City. The chick, weighing 137.5 grams, is the 23rd eaglet bred and born under the Philippine Eagle Foundation?s (PEF) conservation breeding program.The Philippine eagle which once ruled the skies over most of the Philippine islands is today close to extinction. Drawing on lessons learned from the condor and harpy eagle conservation programmes in the United States, the foundation's goal is to set free one captive-bred bird each year.
