DAVAO CITY — A rescued Philippine Eagle named Rajah Cabungsuan will be released back to the wilderness on November 17, the Philippine Eagle Foundation (PEF) announced.
According to the PEF, the male eagle is over five years old.
"Rajah was turned-over to us by the DENR in Bislig City for rehabilitation. After over seven months at the Philippine Eagle Center, he is healthy and fit and ready to be brought back to his forest home in Lingig," the PEF said.
Rajah Cabungsuan was named after a barangay in Lingig, Surigao del Sur where he was rescued last March 23, the PEF added.
