I even feel like I can't beat a single bird, walking with the swagger of a hulking brute.
The largest sculpture – Food Monkey Sculpture
Food Monkey Sculpture: Also known as the Philippine Eagle.
Large in size, with a body length of 91 cm, a wingspan of 200-250 cm, and a weight of 6500 grams, with a lifespan of 30 years.
Food Monkey Sculpture is a large predatory bird with a wingspan that can reach 2.5 meters, the second largest eagle in the world. The Food Monkey Sculpture's main food source is monkeys, hence its nickname ‘Monkey Eagle’.
It will also capture other creatures. The Food Monkey Sculpture is extremely ferocious when eating monkeys, first blinding the monkeys' eyes, then tearing the monkeys into pieces with its sharp claws. Currently, the number of Food Monkey Sculptures is very rare and endangered.
Food Monkey Sculpture lives in the Philippine tropical rainforests, inhabiting low-mountain to open grassland areas. Its habits are similar to the American Bald Eagle, with short and broad wings and long tail feathers, which can fly agilely and suddenly increase its speed.
This makes it particularly suitable for activity in the forest.
Most of its time is spent hidden flying and hunting in the treetops.
Food Monkey Sculpture has a strong territoriality.
Each pair occupies an area of about 30-50 square kilometers, which varies depending on the extent of forest cover and terrain changes.
Within its territory, most animals are its prey, especially monkeys, snakes, cats, and arboreal animals.
Sometimes it likes to hide near the holes of rhinoceroses, ambushing male rhinoceroses that bring food to the female rhinoceroses incubating eggs in the holes.
Food Monkey Sculptures that frequent villages and farmland often prey on dogs and pigs.
Its distribution range is particularly limited, found only in the Philippines, especially on the islands of Luzon, Leyte, Samar, and Mindoro.
It lives in the deep forests of tropical vegetation, inaccessible to humans, which is beneficial for hunting and nesting.
In the wild, the breeding rate of Food Monkey Sculpture is very low, not only the number of eggs is small, but it takes two years to raise a young bird.
Since it takes more than four months for young birds to grow feathers, even young birds with fully grown feathers still stay in the territory of their parents for two years.
Food Monkey Sculpture has been listed as CITES Class I protected animal under the Washington Convention.
