Wildlife

Cabiokid has positioned itself as a nature center, where human activities can co-exist with wildlife. Providing space for several endemic wildlife at the farm’s premises has become a priority.

In 2007, Cabiokiod got the following agreements approved:

  • MOA with Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Office (PENRO) on wildlife rescue center Cooperation with government in breeding and protecting wildlife.
  • In consultation with PAWB and PENRO central Luzon, Cabiokid will reserve a significant space of its farm as a wildlife rescue center.
  • DENR, region 3 approved a Wildlife Farm Permit (WFP) for Cabiokid, paving the way to go into small-scale wildlife breeding and to participate with other support programs in coordination with government agencies.
  • As of May 2007, Cabiokid has a wildlife farm permit with the government

Cabiokid has reared grass owls, swamp harriers and spotted and zebra doves over the past years. Some were again released to the wild after proper coordination with the government agencies in charge.

Cabiokid organizes regular session with the local youth in order to appreciate, get to know and understand the lives of the wild birds. Widening their knowledge will support the wildlife habitat creation and protection.

 

We recorded the birth of 2 fawns during the latter part of 2007 Wild pig breeding with support from ERDB and Avilon zoo.

 

Cabiokid was able to acquire three wild piglets (Sus Philippinensis) through the support of Avilon zoo and the Ecosystems Research and Development Bureau (ERDB) of the DENR, based in Los Baños, Laguna.

The pigs will be allowed to roam in a spacious enclosure and will be integrated in the permaculture system.

 

Food and food sources will be established to ensure an independent and natural system for breeding the animals, while they will assist in improving the overall soil fertility.

The Cabiokid breeding and wildlife program is entering its third year and has provided many challenging insights in rearing wildlife.

To some extent we believe that breeding wildlife is a very profitable.

  • Breeding wildlife can expose the biodiversity of the Philippine fauna to a wider audience.
  • Breeding wildlife can be a way to refer from hunting the animals in their natural habitat.
  • Breeding wildlife can be a support to replenish heavily degraded areas.

Cabiokid would specially like to thank Jake Gaw of Avilon zoo and Dr Lito Exconde and Dr. Manny Bravo from EDRB and Dr. Steven U Toledo from AWPD for their support and thrust in Cabiokid.
