Question: What initiatives does the Biodiversity Management Bureau (BMB) implement to protect endangered species in the Philippines?

Answer: The Biodiversity Management Bureau (BMB) leads several initiatives focused on protecting endangered species, particularly under the framework of the Expanded National Integrated Protected Areas System (E-NIPAS) Act. Through E-NIPAS, BMB designates protected areas where habitats for endangered species are preserved, reducing human interference. BMB also conducts Species-Specific Conservation Programs, targeting critically endangered species such as the Philippine eagle, tamaraw, and sea turtles. These programs involve research, habitat restoration, breeding efforts, and community education campaigns to raise awareness about these species. In collaboration with local communities, BMB also runs "Wildlife Law Enforcement" initiatives, which aim to crack down on illegal poaching and trafficking. By combining legal protection, active conservation, and public engagement, BMB works to stabilize and hopefully increase the populations of threatened species.
