About Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center

Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center
 

Located in Puerto Princesa, the Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center, also known as the Crocodile Farm, plays a crucial role in the conservation of the critically endangered Philippine crocodile and saltwater crocodiles. Originally established to breed and protect crocodile species, the center has expanded its focus to include numerous indigenous animal and plant species from the region. The facility offers guided tours that illustrate the life cycle of the crocodiles, from eggs to adults, and highlight the importance of conservation efforts. Visitors can also explore the site’s mini-zoo, which houses other animals native to Palawan, such as the bearcat, different bird species, and oriental small-clawed otters. The center provides educational exhibits and programs that emphasize the importance of wildlife and habitat conservation in maintaining biodiversity. As a stop on eco-tourism itineraries, it offers a unique blend of education and adventure for those interested in natural history and conservation.
