We’ve just completed a 16-day biodiversity assessment in SADIK (formerly known as the Aruyan-Malati and Mt. Siburan region), a site now being proposed as a Critical Habitat. This assessment will provide crucial insights into the health of the ecosystem and its biodiversity, supporting the effective management of the area by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), the PESO LGU Sablayan, the Sablayan Prison and Penal Farm (SPPF), and the Taobuid ethnolinguistic group.![]()
🙏 A huge thank you to everyone who made this possible: the @DENR
DENR- Tamaraw Conservation Program, the Office of the Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Officer of Sablayan, the Bureau of Corrections and the SPPF, the dedicated members of the Taobuid and Alangan ethnolinguistic groups, and of course, our amazing team.![]()

This discovery underscores Mindoro’s unique evolutionary history and its critical role in endemic speciation among small mammals.![]()
