Expand the Foundation’s successful Philippine cockatoo conservation efforts in Rasa and Dumaran islands by taking on the illegal wildlife trade, focusing specifically on threatened birds highly prized as pets, such as the Philippine cockatoo and blue-naped parrot. The Foundation will target its efforts in southern Palawan, as well as in the principal center for wildlife trade, the provincial capital of Puerto Princesa City.
