Philippine Eagle( Pithecophaga jefferyi )

Founded in 1897, the Philippine Eagle is said to be a huge eagle(one of the largest eagles living today) growing up to 2'10"-3'4" with a large, deep bill and elongated nape feathers forming a "shaggy" crest. It has a dark face with a creamy-buff crown and nape. Upper parts are dark brown while the under parts are white. This eagle lives in the Philippines and it's population is currently at some 180-500 birds, but the numbers are decreasing due to forest destruction and fragmentation. The locals also hunt these birds for food and zoo exhibits.
