DENR calls for weapons control in protected areas

DAVAO CITY: The initial findings of the Department of Envi- ronment and Natural Resources (DENR) showed that Philippine Eagle, Pamana, was found at the periphery of the buffer zone in Mt. Hamiguitan where there are inhabited communities.

With this development, the DENR now sees the need to intensify forest protection inside the Mount Hamiguitan Range Wildlife Sanctuary, the regulation of weapons and the need to strengthen information on protecting endangered species.
