00:00In the middle of nowhere,
00:11a kid named Panky is falling down.
00:16He's alone in the woods and he can't survive on his own.
00:22Another kid is trapped in the screen gate of a house.
00:28Rescue the Golden Crown Baby Bugs!
00:35Why are they falling to the ground?
00:44It's breeding season for paniky in their roosting site in Sambales.
00:49It's breeding season for paniky in their roosting site in Sambales.
00:58The more, the merrier.
01:05At first glance, it looks like the two endemic Golden Crown Flying Foxes are fighting.
01:11But the two are actually courting each other.
01:21The female paniky is forcing the male paniky to fight back.
01:29The female paniky's aggressive behavior is natural when courting.
01:34Especially if the male paniky is the first to approach.
01:43But if you're patient, you'll win.
01:58The mating of the two paniky is successful.
02:01This is good news.
02:03Especially since their species is now endangered.
02:13For now, their number is only around 10,000 in the wild.
02:23But the problem is, the paniky are falling down.
02:29Rescue the Golden Crown Baby Bugs!
02:34This video was taken last June.
02:39A paniky was found alone on a tree.
02:45The group of wildlife in need immediately brought it to the rescue center for rehabilitation.
02:52It was also released to the wild.
02:55Today, we will go to the roosting site where a paniky is said to be falling down.
03:03They say that these paniky used to roost there.
03:08But it looks like they found a good spot here.
03:12That's why it's next to the house.
03:14It looks like they roosted three trees.
03:17We're going to observe their behavior here next to this house.
03:23Last June, a paniky was found on the screen gate of this house.
03:31It's one of the Golden Crown Flying Fox, which is endemic in the country.
03:37We found it here.
03:39It's hanging like that.
03:41It's hanging like that.
03:47Early in the morning, Estong is going around the roosting site of the paniky.
03:54She's trying to catch the falling paniky.
03:59This is what the group of wildlife does every year.
04:03In June, another Golden Crown Flying Fox was found on the screen gate of this house.
04:14Where did you find the paniky that you rescued?
04:18We found it here.
04:21It's hanging like that.
04:22It was raining that night.
04:26That's why we rescued it.
04:28Because of the hot weather and the heavy rain,
04:31the paniky's claws are weakening and it's hard to release the paniky from the mother.
04:40But this is an accident, especially when the paniky is learning to fly.
04:51It's still young. It's still young.
04:53It's still young. It's still learning.
04:55It's still learning how to practice its wings.
05:01First, the mother will show the paniky how to spread its wings.
05:07Then, it will imitate its child.
05:11Oh, the child looks excited about its first flying experience.
05:23Here at the Wildlife in Need Rescue Center,
05:27we bring the paniky that we rescued.
05:33Oh, this one.
05:36Oh, it's a golden crown.
05:39Oh my goodness.
05:40What's important in these kinds of wildlife rescues is
05:44you want to avoid too much human contact.
05:47I think it's time to feed it, so I will use forceps.
05:52And we will try to feed it.
05:57There, it got it.
06:01They are called golden crown because of the color of their head.
06:09When their mouth is full,
06:11you can see their cheeks.
06:14It's like a child's mouth is full.
06:17Its cheeks are bulging.
06:20This small paniky is dependent on its mother for food and shelter.
06:27So when it falls to the ground,
06:30it's impossible for its mother to get it and it will die.
06:34When it falls to the ground,
06:36it's impossible for its mother to get it and it will die.
06:41This baby bat has been at the rescue center for a week.
06:45When you first got this, how small was this baby bat?
06:50It was smaller than this, sir.
06:52After this, what's your plan?
06:55For example, we will train it to look for food.
06:58We will transfer it to a bigger enclosure.
07:00When we see that it can hunt for food,
07:03we will transfer it back to the bat kingdom where it came from.
07:08The paniky that are being rehabilitated at the Wyn Rescue Center
07:13are also being transferred back to the wild
07:15when it's time to see if it's fit for release.
07:20For now, the group of 20 paniky has been released.
07:25Two species of bats can be seen here at the roosting site in Zambales.
07:30Thank you for watching Born to be Wild.
