Philippine eagle is one of the nations pride

I have encountered and witnessed the biggest eagle in the whole world that comes from the Philippines particularly in Davao City. Last month, I visited the Philippine Eagle sanctuary in Calinan Davao City. There were eagles in captivity. The veterinarians gave a closer studies on how to increase the number of their population because the attitude of the Philippine eagles are really different compared to other eagles. The Male bird usually finds its perfect partner because if you just find one to be his partner, the male one would kill the female eagle. Compatibility is really a big issue here that's why they are classified into an endangered species. The Davao City government and the different foundations are very much concern on the Philippine eagle's production. The Scientist of the said institution are doing the artificial insemination procedure. Veterinarian extracts a sperm cell from the male one and insert it into the female eagle.Some of the birds their are the results of their successful artificial insemination. if you want to see them in actual figure, you can always visit the Philippine eagle farm site at the Calinan Davao City. I was able to see the biggest eagle their during my college visit named Diola. I am proud to say to you that I am one of the members of the Haribon Foundation during my colllege years. A foundation that takes care with the Philippine eagle. The biggest eagle was measured its single wing to 7 meters that glides 1 mile without flapping their both wings.
