Municipal Council declares Candaba as bird sanctuary

December 22, 2010

CANDABA – The Municipal Council here has recently approved an ordinance declaring the entire municipality of Candaba, including its wetlands and waterways, as a bird and wild fish sanctuary.

This declaration aims to further bolster the municipality’s program of harnessing and developing its eco-tourism potential.

The said ordinance was passed in support of the existing Republic Act 9147, otherwise known as The Wildlife Resources Conservation and Protection Act, which includes the Wildlife Law Enforcement Manual of Operations and related Memorandum Circulars of the Department of Environment and natural Resources (DENR) and the Department of Agriculture (DA).

The Candaba swamps are very fertile due to sustained deposits of humus and decaying vegetable residues, which is why migrant wild ducks and various birds flock here to escape the winter winds in China and Siberia.

To recall, on October 17, 2003, the Municipal Council of Candaba also passed a resolution declaring Candaba as a Fresh Water Aquaculture Resource and a Fish Sanctuary Zone for the purpose of protecting and preserving its flora and fauna.

The concerned Municipal Council likewise passed a subsequent resolution declaring the Candaba Swamp as a bird sanctuary on September 27, 2004.

The town is known as the Home of Migratory Birds. It has also become a leading advocate of environmental and wildlife protection. (Herbert P. Mapiles)
