Episode on January 13, 2010
Wednesday night, after Saksi
On the surface, this marina in Surigao del Norte appears like any old forgotten boat dock. But little do the residents know that life has emerged underneath the abandoned pier. Vibrant coral reefs have formed beneath the structure, clinging to the posts that support the pier above. Colorful schools of fish now reside in these corals. For the first time, Kiko Rustia and the team document this newly found dive site for the locals of Surigao and the rest of the country. Will the sight of this gem inspire us to better protect our shores? Or will many of the creatures in this newly discovered site end up in markets to satisfy the population's growing needs?
The "bayawak" or monitor lizard is a Philippine reptile that now joins the list of species in danger of extinction. They used to roam the forests in large numbers, but excessive hunting has now diminished the number of these giant lizards. In the island paradise of Palawan, Doc Ferds comes literally face to face with a colony of monitor lizards. Here, they seem curious about people and freely roam around their territory. Doc Ferds observes their behavior and seeks the answers on how to protect their kind.
Dont miss these adventures on Born to be Wild airing on Wednesday after Saksi!
Lingid sa kaalaman ng mga residente ng Surigao del Norte, isang yaman ang hindi pa nila natutuklasan. Hindi alam ng karamihan na mayroon pala silang ganitong klaseng ginto at hindi ito basta-basta makikita dahil ito ay nasa ilalim ng dagat, sa ilalim ng lumang pier. Ang mga abandonadong daungan ng bangka, tahimik sa ibabaw ngunit tinubuan na pala ng makukulay na coral sa ilalim! Ang dating walang buhay na lugar, ngayo'y punong-puno ng sigla. Sa kauna-unahang pagkakataon, ipapakita ni Kiko sa mga residente at lokal na opisyal ang video na kanilang nakunan. Ano kaya ang magiging reaksyon nila? Mahikayat kaya silang pangalagaan ito?
Ang bayawak ay isang uri ng reptile na ngayon ay kasama na sa listahan ng mga hayop na nanganganib maubos ang lahi. Sa paraisong isla ng Palawan, nakita ni Doc Ferds kung paano sila namumuhay. Naobserbahan ang kanilang bawat kilos at galaw at kung paano sila nakikihalubilo sa mga tao. Sa likod ng mga banta sa kanilang lahi, paano nga ba poprotektahan ang mga dambuhalang butiki?
Lahat ng ito mapapanood ngayong Miyerkules sa Born to be Wild, pagkatapos ng Saksi.
