The Philippine version of Singapore’s Jurong BirdPark and the home of the Malagos Garden's Interactive Bird Show is now a certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary.
Malagos Garden resort, 12-hectare art and nature theme park in Davao City, is the first property in the country and the 39th in the world to be certified in the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for Business and Properties of Audubon International, a worldwide organization based in the USA.
Audubon International is a non-profit, environmental education organization that spearheads education and conservation assistance programs that promote environmental sustainability.
The Malagos Garden facility provides a habitat for Mindanao lorikeets, a number of rehabilitated native hornbills and some smaller eagles, and butterflies.
The Malagos Garden's landscape is also strewn with a vast collection of assorted plants, orchids, fruit tress, palms, and the Waling-waling (dubbed as the Queen of Philippine orchids).
Malagos Garden is best known for the Malagos Garden’s International Bird Show, the only full production bird show in the country and seen by over 300,000 people in its four-year run.
Hosted by Roberto "Dr. Bo" Puentespina Jr., DVM, the project is meant to help urban dwellers to appreciate the wonders of Filipino exotic birds and to teach important lessons in environmental responsibility.
The show's second in Metro Manila will be mounted at the Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife Center, QC, from Oct. 20- Jan. 29, 2006.
The Malagos Garden's Interactive Bird Show is spearheaded by the Malagos Wildlife Preservation Foundation, Inc., in cooperation with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
