So, it's now the end of Season 1.

But, don't worry, mga Ka-Widlife, we are now preparing for Season 2!

In Season 1, we talked about ecosystems and featured a lot of wildlife species. We learned not only their unique characteristics and habits but also their decreasing habitats and threats from human activities. We were also given tips on how we can conserve and protect them. For the second season, we will share more information about endemic, endangered, threatened or vulnerable wildlife in the country, hoping to encourage everyone to join our journey towards sustainable management of natural resources... because Wildlife Philippines is not just your podcast, it’s not just your educational resource.

Wildlife Philippines is a campaign for biodiversity conservation and wildlife protection. Together, let’s care for life, let’s protect wildlife!
