1.5 Euro Philippine eagle

The Philippine eagle, also known as the monkey eagle, is the largest bird of prey in the Philippine Islands, where it is native, and one of the largest in the world. With a wingspan of almost two metres, a metre in height and weighing up to 8 kg, it is one of the largest birds of prey in the world, and is capable of hunting a wide variety of prey in the jungles where it lives: monkeys, snakes, some mammals, other birds...
The plumage of the monkey eagle is of various colours, predominantly white on the front and dark brown and black on the rest of the plumage. Robust yellow legs, black talons, equally large and arched beak, with a bluish-grey colour, and a characteristic light brown crest on the head, similar to the mane of a lion, which gives it an appearance similar to the mythical griffin.
This raptor, which can live up to 60 years in the wild, lives in the forested, high-altitude areas of the islands of Luzon, Samar, Leyte and Mindanao. They are monogamous birds, like most eagles, with a very low reproductive rate with a single clutch of a single egg and a total gestation and breeding period of 2 years.
Mining, deforestation of its forest habitat and the ever-present poaching have made this eagle one of the most endangered birds of prey on the planet, being critically endangered according to the IUCN, with only 400 eagles in the wild.
In 1995 the Philippine eagle was declared the national bird of the Philippines.
