Just sharing something that's near and dear to my heart.
The Cornell lab of Ornithology produced this documentary film in 2018 to raise awareness about the Philippine Eagle within the international community.
Local screenings (here in the Philippines) started in 2020.

Just follow this link to youtube, since they don't allow posting the film on forums:

It is rare to have a beautifully shot and well made documentary be hosted for "free" on Youtube, so here's the link. I've been to one of the paid screenings, so this was a pleasant surprise.

Conservation efforts for extant dinosaurs, yes please. Do tell me what you think, 'cause I'm enjoying this with rose tinted glasses (old people idiom  ;D).

I haven't seen it yet but I saw it posted this morning ( I subscribe to Cornell) and immediately saved it to my watch later folder. Looking forward to watching it!

Thanks for sharing. I added it to my watch later list, as well. The Philippine Eagle is one of the most beautiful raptors in the world. It's a tragedy that they're endangered because of human activity. I hope the species can be saved. It will be tough not only because of the massive habitat loss but because their reproduction rate is terrible. They usually lay one egg, and it takes them two years to raise the chick.
