The Philippine Eagle is perhaps one of the most beautiful of all the fauna species in the rich Philippine tropical rainforest and thanks to the irresponsible logging, the very home of these birds are in danger of being lost forever and the birds themselves exterminated completely.

Conservation efforts are being made to save this species and during one of Steve's visit to the city of Davao, on the island of Mindanao where the Philippine eagle is indigenous, Steve took a snap shot of one of the captured eagles for posterity.

Efforts to re-populate the forests surrounding Davao proved to be marginally successful with the efforts of captive breeding but the dangers of forever losing the Philippine eagle is still a clear and present danger unless more efforts and funding are extended to achieve a positive conclusion.
