Welcoming our new Tamaraw Conservation Research Officer (August 19, 2019)

Freshly landed from Spain, our new Tamaraw Conservation Research Officer (TCRO), Mr. Fernando Garcia Gil, challenged the mud and the rain of Mts Iglit-Baco Natural Park of the rainy season in order to meet with local DAF team and rangers and get a glimpse of the natural context of the Park.

Fernando’s mission will be in the continuation of Alvaro’s fieldwork, our previous TRO and concentrate on several aspects:

- Develop alternative census method of tamaraw

- Initiate deeper experiment on the dynamic of the natural habitat and impact of fire regime in the Park.

- Expand knowledge on the ecology of the tamaraw and other wildlife in seral sites in Mindoro.
