GLOBAL SIGNIFICANCE OF PHILIPPINE BIODIVERSITY
HARBORS MORE DIVERSE LIFE FORMS THAN ANY
OTHER COUNTRY ON EARTH
HAS MORE THAN 52, 000 DESCRIBED SPECIES OF WHICH
MORE THAN ONE HALF ARE FOUND NOWHERE ELSE ON
EARTH;
MORE THAN 1,000 TERRESTRIAL WILDLIFE SPECIES
HAVE BEEN RECORDED; HALF OF THESE ARE ENDEMIC;
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT CENTERS OF
AMPHIBIANS AND REPTILES IN SOUTHEAST ASIA;
HOME TO AN ASTOUNDING 576 SPECIES OF BIRDS, OF WHICH 195
ARE ENDEMIC, MAKING THE PHILIPPINES THE 4TH LEADING
COUNTRY IN THE WORLD IN BIRD ENDEMISM;
WITH 174 INDIGENOUS MAMMALIAN SPECIES, 111 OF WHICH
