  • The Philippine Eagle is one of the world's largest and most powerful birds. It is also critically endangered. Pag-asa (Filipino for "Hope") was born in 1992, the first Philippine eagle bred in captivity through artificial insemination. This is the story of Pag-asa and his keeper Eddie.

    I love how he tucks his wings up in slow motion, to say as if "That's right, bitches. Admire me." xD

    I like the way he wears all leather, thus allowing this Majestic Bird to perch on his head and poke at him on the arms. This keeper is allowing the Philippine Eagle to remain King of the roost. Good job also with eagle program!

    I hope the philippine government would do something to protect their habitat, not only theirs but for the rest of the animals too who depends on the nature resources

    MrEliasescobar - The eagle in the video is a male eagle named PAG-ASA (Hope) about15-20% smaller than the large female eagles. Pag-asa is the very first Philippine eagle successfully bred in captivity through artificial insemination.w/c was hatched in 1992.

    How’s the captive breeding program of the Philippine Eagle in Davao City coming along? All Filipinos should have the opportunity to see our majestic national bird without having to travel hundreds of miles across the sea by ship. Taking a domestic flight takes much less time, of course, but it’s also more expensive. Hopefully, the breeding program of the Philippine Eagle is a success. I’d like to see one at Cebu Zoo someday even if the entrance fee is increased tenfold from P25/PAX to P250/PAX.

    they are so beautiful. I can't imagine being a bird and being caged. They are meant to stretch their wings and roam freely in the sky with fresh air blowing by them.

    If there will be no drastic efforts in the remaining forests in the Philippines within the lifetime of the present generation, the legacy of our national bird will only be seen on tapes, mail stamps, or stuffed carcasses in museums. Let's not allow that to happen. What can we do to prevent it? Visit whatsnextph(dot)org to know the next steps.

    @timdella92 Před 12 lety +6

    It's because majority of people in Davao are from different places in Philippines. That is why dialects are intertwined. Most of us can't really speak straight Bisaya. Tagalog and English is needed in order to make coherent sentences.

    @DrieBier Před 13 lety +2

    Unbelievable that such a beautiful creature is threatened with extinction... he is so beautiful! This really makes me sad. I assume EVERYTHING is done to at least double the population as soon as possible and AVOID THE RISK OF INBREEDING???
    This so sad.

    It's still a baby. If it's old enough to handle themselves, they will let the eagle go back to its natural habitat...

    Make a law that anyone, native or foreigner, who kills or captures a Philippine Eagle shall be penalized. Then advertise that law on TV, on print, on radio, on posters and on the government's website. Protect the forest too. Some corrupt politicians in Mindanao grab lands and destroy the forests there. This has to stop! The wealth of the forest is never meant to only benefit few influential families. The forest is for every Filipino, every bird, every beast who live and co-exist among us.

    Instead of giving Pag-asa the meat directly, try throwing in the live prey for hunting. Maybe the raptor needs higher male hormone levels to produce more semen..
