LOST ENDEMIC PRIDE OF THE PHILIPPINES | The West Visayan Big Five
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 июл 2024
- We venture deep into the province of Negros island searching for 'The big five' of Western Visayas. With a goal to see the last remaining endemic species of the island. In a vlog style mini documentary we learn about the conservation at Bayawan Nature Reserve, lead by Scientist and over a decade long conservationist Matthew Ward. In only 2 years they have successfully breed and released endangered animals back into the wild.

It's nice to see Finn going above water for a change. To see rare birds, wild boars, deer and people saving these animals. It's breathtaking.
Hi Finn, I have been a subscriber for 3 years now.
Thank you for being so mindful of the country's nature condition. I hope these messages would reach many viewers. All power to you and the conservationists team. Thanks
First time seeing those birds,,so beautiful thanks for sharing finn
This video might be your best yet and your enthusiasm is inspiring.
Vel gert!
The last time i saw wild pig was 2002 in that place.. so happy thats it is now protected.. thank you City Government of Bayawan and thank you Finn for this wonderful information.
Hi Finn
Wow Awoseme !!!big 👍👍👍for this Organisation, those animals are Beutiful 🤩😍🤩👌👌👌💟🌹💟
Nice vlog...trees trees even in cities..natural habitat of birds and our own tropical squirrels
Wow! Never seen these species until you showed these beautiful creatures in your vlog. So happy that some people still value animal conservation.👍
Thank you Finn for showing me (us) species I didn't know that are endemic to the Philippines but before going further, I would like to express my gratitude to you and to Matt for saving species that are close to the end of their lifeline - extinction. These animals and birds deserve to be around. They are here for a reason. Your style of vlogging is different compared to the rests of the vloggers. Your vlogging make more sense - "Educational and awareness". Your documentation and narration are effective tool to reach out to the Filipino community around the world what need to be done. You captured on your video unusual ocean creatures I've never heard nor seen before and here you are showing us another side of the animal kingdom in the Philippines. Animals and birds species never heard that are native to the Philippines - Tina Turner like wild boar or mohawk - first time to see one like that - variety of Hornbills, deer, leopard cat "thought existence of leopard cat is only in Africa or South America". Salute to Matt for making a difference in the nation. The future of these creatures are at stake and Matt is doing an impressive job for these creatures lifeline - a million thanks Matt. If I am to send something, where and who would that be.
Good to know that there is a Nature Reserve in this town. Kudos to the guys who runs this reserve.
It’s amazing how the foreigners have initiatives to protect our wildlife and us locals don’t care about their existence a lot of times
Locals needs to be educated about those animals, good thing there’s a group of people who really cares about those animals👍👍👍👍
@@teddedios991 AMEN !!!!!!!!
Not that they don’t care, it’s the combination of being uneducated, poverty and corruption of the government.
@@linnmagic Yep.
Not all locals though so don't generalize. It happens in all countries mind you. Do you know how the Japanese keep on killing dolphins and whales for sushi and sashimi? The Americans hunt and kill their wolves and other wild animals as well oh and they go to Africa to shoot endangered animals like elephants, lions all in the guise of culling but its more for sport actually.
I cannot thank you enough for spreading awareness of the Philippine fauna. 🥰🥰
Wow Finn wow!!!
Its not a mistake to be ur follower.
Thank u 4 loving and caring whats in our country,Philippines💞
That was an eye opener vlog and to think Philippines has got all these endemic species. Thanks to Matt (great surname btw) and his team for looking after the conservation of these wildlifes. Well done Finn. 😊
Thank you for preserving our wildlife guys🙏😍
Wow my 1st time seing a visayan wild cat...thats so beautiful...hope there are more cats like that are existing....locals must be educate on how these wildlife being so important on the eco system...great job finn God bless you always with a good health...
oww men this deserves more views and finn deserves more subs, lets help him to reach 500k . His content is just very informative not only for us but for it opens the Philippines into the rest of the world
OMG Finn !!!
Never in my Wildest Dream we have these Animals Sanctuary in the brink of losing them.
Epic Vlog !!!
Thank you so much for sharing this.
God bless ❤️🙏😍
I saw this bleeding dove and hornbills in Singapore bird park, I’m from western visayas and I can’t believe we have this beautiful birds in our environment. Thanks for showing this Finn, sadly what is DENR doing…
Poaching should definitely be stopped. These animals are beautiful and unique. This video is really informational ❤️
To sum up, Filipinos should stop eating lechon
Pigs for lechon are not endangered species!
@@christophermichaelclarence6003 Sorry, that is borne out of ignorance. Wild pigs are not the usual fare for lechon.
@@milatan3804That previous comment comes from a person who needs education in conservation..siguro kumain nga siya nga wild pig lechon.
@@christophermichaelclarence6003 Bruh pigs aren’t a endangered species -_-
Thanks, i just know now that there are some people willing to help conserve those species in the wild. thanks to all who are involve in that project
One of your favorites vlog Finn. That boar with a mohawk look like a miniature elephant without the trunk. The mouse-deer is so cute & that bird with red chest is exquisite. 😍🇵🇭👍🏼
Amazing discovery of these wild animals and birds . I never been to the jungle so scared but yes it’s impressive to know that people are out there to protect these wildlife for becoming extinct . It break my hearts to see them totally go without trace . I love animals and birds myself so I know the feeling . Good job Finn as always . Thank you.
Bayawan City not only have this Nature Conservation Area as what Finn now is showing us in his latest Vlog but this city is also known for its modern Sanitary LANDFILL which other big cities don't have. I am from Cebu Province & I'm proud to say that this landfill was no.1 in our bucket list in coming to Negros Oriental.
Yes I noticed big trash truck on the road driving!
Very, very educational...but that is what happens when humans/Pinoys multiply and move in on these beautiful animals' habitats. So the questions, are we humans to do about it? I really commend those who work in conservation. Maybe we ought to help them by donating to their cause. Walk the talk.
As I am watching your vlog, i think I've also felt the amazement and awe upon seeing the beautiful creatures. Hopeful and always praying that people will learn to respect and peacefully live with these wonderful creations. 💓
Well done Finn wat a amazing vlog and wat a fantastic job then people are doing so incredibly important thanks once again Finn 😀😊👏
Thanks Finn for featuring in your vlogs this Bayawan Nature Reserve. Those endemic wild birds and animals need this kind of place to survive.👍👍
THESE ANIMALS WERE ONCE VERY COMMON IN THE PHILIPPINES (in more islands than they exist today):
•The talusi/tirik/tariktik (Visayan hornbills, their feathers were once a common decoration for warriors)
•The kalaw/kalangay (Rufous-headed hornbill, feathers also used as decoration, kampilan sword hilts are commonly carved in the shape of their heads)
•The katala/kakatua (red vented cockatoo, the shape of their head is the default sword hilt design in Muslim Mindanao, where they are now extinct)
•The limokon (various green iridescent doves, once regarded as messengers of the spirits)
•The kulo-kulo/agbaan (bleeding heart dove)
•The baboy-ramo/baboy-lasang (warty pig, a former hunting staple)
•The Philippine leopard cat (so rare that people have forgotten its native name, there's a picture of one caught by the Igorot in Luzon in 1913, where they are extinct in modern times)
•The balintung (pangolin)
•The salaksak (kingfishers, once common in rice fields)
•The kulasisi (Philippine hanging parrot, most Filipinos don't even know the Philippines has several species of native parrots)
•The kagwang (flying lemur, once so common that its name is a mild affectionate insult in Bisaya roughly meaning "silly")
•The mawumag (tarsier)
•The kalabyaw/kabog (flying fox, once also a common hunted animal)
•The pilandok (the Philippine mouse deer, whose range once included Mindanao where it is a legendary trickster, now restricted to Palawan)
•The tabon (Philippine megapode or a related species like the maleo, a flightless bird related to cassowaries/rheas that nests in sand, described by the Magellan expedition from Bohol(?) but now extinct in the Visayas)
•The sarus crane (now extinct in the Philippines, native name forgotten)
•The Philippine leaf bird (a bright green bird, now probably extinct)
•The usa (various native deer. Once a literal staple hunted animal, so common their horns were commonly used to carve sword hilts)
•The giant cloud rats (again so rare, we've forgotten their native name. Once a common hunted staple)
•The Philippine duck (the original pato, now very rare)
•The tamaraw (whose name was used for a Toyota vehicle, once a common hunted animal for the native Mangyan of Mindoro)
•The dugong (whose name actually comes from Cebuano. Once regarded as sacred reincarnations of drowned women, now almost extinct because of the loss of once vast seagrass meadows)
•The pugo (the original native quail of the Philippines)
•The giant scops owl (once common throughout the Philippines, now only reported from the Dinagat islands)
•The kulago or kuwago (Philippine eagle owl, the largest owl in the Philippines, now rare)
•The sinarapan/bia/tabios (the dwarf goby, once found on the 10 centavo coin and once the national fish of the Philippines, once common in Malabon, now extinct because the river was reclaimed and doesn't exist anymore)
•Numerous native fishes (replaced by tilapia, carp, and guppies introduced by Americans)
Really? May Mouse deer rin noon sa Mindanao? Saan nio po nalaman yang info na yan sir/mam?
@@7kikoae77jungle9 Because of linguistic and cultural evidence. Several tribes in Mindanao have native names for the mouse-deer. This includes Maranao "pilandok", Tausug "pilanduk", Tiruray "filanduk", Manobo "pilanduk", and T'boli "uhu".
The mouse-deer is also an iconic trickster-hero character in pre-colonial Maranao, Tiruray, and Manobo folklore.
Note in particular that most of these names are from highlander (non-seafaring) tribes. Which means they did not derive the knowledge of the mouse-deer from other islands.
All of which indicates that the mouse-deer was native to Mindanao, but are now extinct. Though it might not be the same species as the Philippine mouse-deer of Palawan, which makes it even sadder.
@@AngryKittens bakit po walang Fossils na napakita kung meron man? Sayang...
@@7kikoae77jungle9 Recently extinct. Only a few centuries to a few thousand years ago. Kung meron mang remains ng mouse-deer, hindi pa yan nafofossilize. Fossils are easier to find because they're much more durable and can be found in rock formations. Chamba lang talaga kung may nakahanap ng buto nila at narecognize na mouse-deer. Napakaliit ng mouse-deer. Easy to mistake it as for a cat or a small dog.
@@AngryKittens walang nakapag aral na may mouse deer pala sa Mindanao.
Finn you are the man of the hour, I did not even know that this conservation place ever exist in the Philippines.thanks for posting and educating us.Also big applaud to those individuals who are working tirelessly for the sake of these beautiful creatures. I hope the government are giving financial support to this group.
Those poor animals lost their habitat beacuse of man's greed. Thanks for sharing Finn.
Big shout out for the video Finn,bloody fantastic bird,,, peace and happiness as always
Grrrr. Wanna watch now but gotta run all weekend.....out the door now. Looking forward to it Finn. 👍
I had no idea we have this Nature Reserve in the Philippines. Thank you for what you do to nature especially to our animals. More power to you and thank you Finn for putting this out to your channel and spreading awareness of our Nature Conservation.
you can witness many different kind of birds species in the Ursula island Bataraza Palawan.
Hats off to the conservationists doing work like this, even in the face of political indifference and the ignorance of the average person to how close we are to losing all of these animals, forever.
Kudos to these people and nice vlog Sir Finn.
I'm glad they have places like these in the Philippines.
Hello Finn, since I've been one of your subs here, I was able to see and learn about the different specie under the sea, those wonderful creatures that we have above the sea too, it 's so sad, that there are people who continue poaching and it's should be stop...many thanks for the people behind the conservation on that area...salute to you guys...keep it up...you to Finn many thanks for showing this to us to open our eyes and be supportive on the conservation that's was going around the country....God bless every one..
Thank you Finn for showing us all about this. We should be aware and start taking care of the wilderness around Philippines. We need to start giving respect for the forest and wild life in the Philippines....
Thank you Pinpin for the glimpse of our rare species that sorround Eastern Visayas. Thank you also to those people in conservation that protects these species.❤️
have you ever experienced burn-out finn? you always seem to live with passion and purpose. the Philippines should thank you for that because its always your subject - this country
A heartfelt gratitude and a million thanks to this special group of people working hard to conserve these endangered species. Thank you FInn for sharing another great video to spread awareness and to educate us about this organization and their mission to save these beautiful animals! I support and follow you all the way from California!
Fin, I'm from Bacolod and we owe you a lot from your vlogs like this....Loving the nature is Loving the Creator....
thats so right...
Thanks Finn & Matthew's team in your enthusiasm for the preservation& protection of the endemic wildlife species,this vlog will help educate to preserves the existance of wildlife
Amazing work these conservationists do! I hope they get all the support they need from everyone. They are saving the 🌎 for us! Thanks Finn for showing this.
The sad thing about these endangered animals is that we don't even need to hunt them, most people don't eat these animals (unlike in countries in Indochina for example). But people still do it. Either because it's a strange "new" animal that they haven't seen before (ironic, I know), or because the animals in question are in demand in China for traditional medicine.
Another quality content finn! Thank you for this!
Great work what they do there for the nature!
hi Finn i love those birds .they are amazing 🌴🌴🌴🌴🌿🌿🍀☘️🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳😘
You are extremely expert in closing up their photos not like other vloggers where the camera keeps on moving very fast.

Thanks Finn, for featuring these rare creatures and the work that's being done to preserve them. Special thanks to Matthew Ward. Great work all around guys, much appreciated. 👌
Kudos to you all, you are not even Filipinos, Thank you very much for all the conservations you are doing
It is really heartening that some conservation efforts are being done on these endemic species, but stricter laws against poaching and killing or even catching them should be enforced with heavy penalties
Finn that was a very inspiring video and the close up shots of those birds was awesome 🤩 thank you 😊 for sharing 🤩😊
I'm so speechless of this species andimic animals we have no chance to see all of this in personal if not in your videos finn its a privileged for us your subscribers and viewers to educate us and aware us what we have in our country....we can't thank you enough with all your efforts to show this andimic creature...big shout out to the bayawan conservation group to do a great job...i salute you all guys keep up the good work may God provides all your needs....may all new generation will can see this animals to be proud of...thank you so much guys! 1 check in your bucket list to see a andimic amimals in philippines....congrats finn!
Thank you so much, Finn for opening the hearts and minds of our locals and the entire nation on how important it is to address now environmental concerns like what you are sharing to us. You have done a priceless endeavour to our country.
Wow Finn, thank you for this video and to those people who are protecting those kind of animals that are endangered. So grateful to them…👍👍💪🏻💪🏻❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Finn for this experience. beautiful animals
This is so interesting! Thank you!
Hi Finn, thanks for bringing this up for awareness, and a huge thank you to all conservation efforts, especially those foreign people who are leading the projects. Thank you and God bless all
I love watching nature, this vlog is a bonus Finn . Interesting wild things in Philippines , the wild boar (pigs ) are big its different from European wild boar. Hornbill birds ( Toucans) they are beautiful . Never seen that species yet. Great that there are some foreigners did help to conserves these endangered species in wilds not only in Asia but some part of the world.
Very interesting blog Finn.👌
Those birds are colorful, the foundation is doing a good job in preserving the near extinct birds. This cause by humans, it is sad to learn. The local should be educated about near extinction of the birds and other animals. You help expose the problem with humans causing it. Good job in spreading the news. This video would help the conservation of the different animals going extinct.
Thank you Finn for sharing this exciting/educational adventure, were happy to see even only in this vlog that these rare creatures still exist, excited to see more of this kind on your coming travel advnture, keep safe.. ❤️
Wow never knew this. Thank you for sharing Finn. Happy to see people taking care of these animals. 🙏❤️
Whoa! amazing animals
Great job! Inspiring to value our treasure and empowering people to protect wildlife. Wonderful footage! 💚✨💫
Very informative vlog. I feel that everyone should watch this video (specially pinoys) . Wonderful animals in the PHILIPPINES. Thank you Finn!
Hopefully the Phil. government will continue to protect all these rare animals and conservation areas/mountains and no more illegal logging. Thank you Finn and always take care.
Congrats on the new super telephoto lens! So tight
Just amazing work they are doing!!! Thank you Finn for sharing this with us. I never know there was so many animals and birds that were so indangered there. Great work! I hope you do more like this in the future. It's so important to save the wild life in the sea and land. Hugs and Love
I’m born and live in Mindanao, and I would like to thank you guys for preserving this place and taking care of these animals especially that pig cause I know those old folks would hunt them down.
Hiya Finn, very informative video. Brings awareness to many. I have great respect for them for the work they are doing to preserve these beautiful creatures. Great video. Thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend. Take care.
Second time I have watched this video. For some reason I felt like I want to cry watching those endangered species and endemic to the Philippines or only in some parts of the Philippines. I hope they can find the two missing endemic bleeding heart doves. Thank you to the conservation employees and to you Finn, your videos are always fun to watch. 🙏
Thank you Finn for showing us this kind of vlog. Most of us are not aware of this endemic birds and animals found in the Visayas. It's an educational vlog!👏👏👏
so amazed to see them really doing the chance of protecting all the birds and animals there that particular place is blessed with kindhearted people thanks for this impt. info. wide opening message to the locals to really love the forest and whats inside of it ✌🏻✌🏻🍀☘️
We need to support Finn and his friends in conserving our remaining national treasures.
So excited for this! Been wanting to see more wildlife of the phillipines 😊 thank god for their conservation efforts!
Thank you Finn for this kind of vlog very educational and informative.
Always enjoy the content you bring forward!
Endemic refers to only found to that part of this world!
Endangered refers to threat to no longer exist due to disregard of habitat to thrive
Extinct refers to as GONE
Your enthusiasm as a novice and the Conservation efforts to not let than happen!
Much respect!
Also enjoyed learning the story behind bleeding heart dove! Is it only the foreigner that are heading these programs? are the local Filipinos also being trained and educated to keep this going? That would be a win win for the local Filipinos as far as employment and preserve these beautiful species for future generations!
Thank you Finn Snow. You are an eye opener. So many things we don't know about our country and you've shown us. Hopefully someday, when it's fully developed, it will be a tourist spot. You're very much appreciated.
Thank you for educating us and sharing this video. Amping always
Another informative and educational Vlog from FinnSnow, we need more of these instead, too many Philippine vlogs are trash.
I love this blog😍😍..
This one of interesting content, i watch on your Vlog Finn, it is very educational and at the same time it is an eye opener, and very timely, that we humans should act now to protect our environment, because the world & the entire planet is dying because of global warming, which is the results of human activities that has a huge impact to the destruction of the Home & Natural habitat ,of this few living endangered Animals. Kudos & Salute to the Men & Women behind this conservation project, i hope they can get more support from your audience's and Communities or International Organization.
This is beautiful.
Wow, amazing . Big wild creatures. Thank you guys for your warm loving hearts taking care of those endemic animals in the Philippines.
Its finn's time👏💯💗
Thank you Finn for caring about the Philippine rare animals.
I really appreciate that you are concerned about the philippine wildlife and inspire others to conserve the nature. ♥
Beautiful indimec animals.. Thanks for sharing this vlog Finn very educational.. Learning new things while watching it👍👍👏👏🤙🤙
Its finn time 🇵🇭💪😎
Stay safe bro 💪💪
I talked to my family they have never seen a deer in the Philippines and they live on Negros Oriental. Thank you for sharing this
May tatlong species ng deer sa Pilipinas,
1.) Philippine brown deer
2.) Visayan spotted deer
3.) Calamian deer
Wonderful vlog, such beautiful animals! That wild boar with the mohawk, wild!!! Thank you for doing this vlog, the PI is so full of beautiful animals and people!
Imagine the frustration of the people involved in saving, educating, maintaining the environment, fighting ignorance, and so much more against the stupidity of the average Filipino. Who’s main interest in getting by and making money no matter what. Hat’s off to those who persevere. Very nice and good vlog😘( fyi:stupidity=lack of education)
I actually take umbrage when you say "the stupidity" of the average Filipino people. Ignorance does not equate with stupidity. Best to provide education for them and not discriminatory criticism.
They need education and this will take time to instill in people. Be patient and stop judgment. The average Filipino are NOT stupid but lack understanding of the consequences of their action when it comes to nature conservation. When one is hungry, what would you prioritise....conservation or your belly?
Unfortunately scubadaisy.....you are in fact the one that is "ignorant" to the struggles of the average Filipinos. I have never been to the Philippines, but I have been to other countries in SE Asia. From watching all the videos on RUclips, I can see that they're all very similar.
I absolutely promise you this. If you had a starving family, you would hunt and kill the last animal of any species on earth before you let your kids go hungry. They are not "stupid".....they are trying to survive. In my experience, most westerners just don't understand. No idea if you're a westerner, but I suspect.
Walk in someone else's shoes before you judge their actions.
To be clear. Sure I hate to see this, but I understand why it's happening.
Filipinos are being scapegoated to all these by the rich and powerful paper company mainly from the USA. Can you blame poor Filipinos to make extra money for existence? The main problem is that these companies never did any re-planting.and also the local government who did nothing but to line their pockets with the bribes from these companies.
Great job featuring these precious creatures...you got my biggest respect and appreciation having put conservation efforts on spotlight...this is really admirable...
Wow, wow, wow. When i saw the birds it brings back my childhood memories in the 60s.I used to go with my father going bird hunting probably in that area because my mother is from Sta. Catalina. I even remember eating big monitor lizard in the jungle. Back then there were so many beautiful birds. But now.. Im really sorry that they are now rare and endemic. Sad. Thanks for the vlog Finn.
Thank you Finn for featuring these endemic and extinct creatures. I salute those people in trying to preserve them. Watching from New York.
Pag namimiss ko sa probinsya dito lang ako nanonood i love it
