Man Made Forest | Bilar, Bohol
In the 1960's, a nationwide reforestation program was launched by the government under, then president, Diosdado Macapagal. In Bohol, spearheaded by then governor Lino Chatto, thousands of Mahogany seedlings were planted on a cleared area of 857.4 hectares in Bilar and Loboc towns. For many years now, the lush green forest has been enjoyed by everyone who passes through it.

Philippine Tarsier
A size of your hand
Peculiar yet cute
Eyes can’t move
But head can turn 180 degrees
Solitary and territorial
Needs at least a hectare of space per individual
This big-eyed arboreal primate known as “Tarsier”
also settles in my home province Bohol.
Visit the Philippine Tarsier sanctuary located in Corella, Bohol. Click here for more info.
Here are our tarsier hunting photos. Enjoy!!
