Philippine animals
Old 02-05-2007

The philipines are home to many unique animals, from Visayan warty pigs and philipine spotted deer to Writhed hornbill and the beautiful Palawan peacock pheasant. Most of them are endangered.

Manila Zoo. I think they keep Visayan and Luzon
Avilon Zoo. I think they keep Visayan, Luzon and Mindanao
Malabon Zoo. I don't know what species they keep.

We have a local aviary here called "St. Jude Bird Park", which has Luzon Tarictic also.

I have some friends who has Polilio Tarictic Hornbills
