Description
Jot down notes on the go while learning about some of the most iconic flora and fauna found in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. The highlighted species were chosen for their endemism to each island group, with a few others featured for their widespread distribution within the respective biogeographic regions despite also being found throughout the Philippines. Details about the plants and animals can be found on the inside back cover of each notebook.
Sadly, most of these Philippine endemic flora and fauna are nearing extinction, but together, we can help with their conservation. For every purchase of the notebooks, a portion of profits will go to Talarak Foundation, an NGO dedicated to safeguarding a number of these species. Please check the Impact page to see updates on how your contribution is helping protect our country’s natural heritage.
