Doves and Pigeons

The Philippines is home to some of the most colorful Doves and Pigeons in the world. These beautiful avian gems are found all over the country and play a vital role in keeping the overall health of the forest by spreading the seeds of the trees they forage on. They are also an important food source of the forest's apex predators, such as Eagles, Hawks and Falcons. Unfortunately, most of our Doves and Pigeons in the Philippines are currently threatened to extinction due to habitat loss and poaching for the illegal wildlife trade.
