Rasa Island Wildlife Sanctuary
This small island near the coast of Narra Municipality, Palawan.
Rasa Island is home to the best studied Philippine Cockatoo population. Nesting success and population development are closely monitored. Present and increasing impacts of climate change become discernible during very dry years, so little food is available that without intervention all hatchlings would die of starvation. Wildlife wardens then climb nest trees several times daily to supplement the food of the hatchlings. If too many nests are affected, birds need to be rescued and hand-raised in Katala Institute. The latter individuals are then available for translocation into other suitable habitats.
