local.descriptionPalawan is home to two UNESCO World Heritage Sites – the Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park and the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park. The province is also considered a biodiversity corridor, serving as a refuge for both marine and terrestrial threatened species. Despite illegal logging, the province has managed to retain approximately 50 percent of its original forest cover. Through eco-tourism, the province knows the value of protecting the environment. Yet being the custodian of natural blessings is no easy task. Foreign poachers continue to threaten marine life around Palawan and locals continue to sell endangered pangolins mainly to Chinese traders. Illegal loggers threaten the forests.en
