A RARE JEWEL
A Palawan peacock-pheasant, an endemic bird found nowhere else on Earth, gracefully roams the Butterfly Garden in Barangay Sta. Monica, Puerto Princesa City. Its iridescent blue plumage and striking tail feathers—immortalized on the Philippine P100 polymer banknote—serve as a reminder that the country’s greatest treasures are not only measured in currency, but in the irreplaceable wildlife that calls our forests home.
