    Despite their efforts to protect Masungi Georeserve, its founder and staff continue to face threats from illegal encroachers to this day. It's a challenge that Masungi's forest rangers have accepted - a challenge that protecting this paradise entails danger.

    The government should protect and preseve this not only the area but also the people who always guard and protect this natural geological area and this area should be expand to a larger area and the DENR should enforce the law against this illegal company or individual who wants to encroach this land god bless to all n masungi georeserve!🙏❤

We are lucky to have such a beautiful country and it will only be wasted to this ungrateful doings of unconcerned people. Our concerned people who appreciates the beauty and sacredness of the place should demonstrate their feelings. Thank you so much for being there.
