00:00The sea is calm
00:06The fish are busy with their food that can be seen in the corals
00:25These two seem to have something to talk about
00:30Until their peaceful life was surrounded by fear
00:42They were caught by humans and eaten
00:54Four people died because of their eating
00:58The threat to the life of the fishermen seems to have increased
01:15Residents of Langil Island in Basilan said that there are many fishermen
01:20So for the first time, we will try to document this
01:28We just want to see the corals below
01:31Let's see if they are calmer
01:39In our investigation, the corals became bright
01:45The corals here seem to be camera shy
01:51It immediately left when I saw it
01:58So that they won't be alarmed, we used a drone
02:02This one is good at eating alone
02:07Another big coral is also close to it
02:11But I learned something about the situation of the corals there
02:20I learned something about the situation of the corals there
02:23They caught it to eat
02:27They believed in fish
02:29If they eat eggs
02:33There is no record of how many eggs there were
02:37Until now, people here are ignorant
02:44Everything has changed now
02:46Because instead of being caught
02:48They save the eggs to be able to return to the wild
02:53In this batch, I saw more than 10 corals
02:59Why did you catch them?
03:00For protection
03:02There are more chances for them to live
03:05Although not all of them
03:07But for the majority of them, they will live
03:10Like if they are still babies
03:13But there are many threats
03:15They will eat fish and birds
03:19This one is a month old
03:24It eats fish
03:29Green sea turtle and hawksbill turtle are the species of coral
03:34That can be seen on the island
03:38They plan to return it to the sea
03:40When the corals are big enough
03:44But because the corals have water in Batchang
03:48Their natural instinct may be lost
03:52We need to return them
03:54Otherwise, they will not learn to survive in the wild
03:57Like to get food for themselves
04:00Because they are used to being fed here
04:07Until now, they are destroying the corals
04:13In 2018, in Haji Mutamad, Basilan
04:15This is where they are killing the corals
04:1840 corals were killed
04:20And the authorities have arrested them
04:24The corals' meat is planned to be sold and eaten
04:28They are still alive
04:29While more than 20 corals are alive and missing
04:36When I went around the island
04:38I saw a new threat to the corals
04:42The garbage in the sea
04:44While we were walking here in the beach of Langil
04:47We noticed this trash truck
04:51It went here
04:53And then it came back
04:54Why did it come back?
04:55Look at this
04:56This is the part of the island where there's a lot of garbage
05:00Maybe when it was looking for a place to dig
05:03It couldn't find it because it was obstructed
05:06There's a lot of garbage and wood lying around
05:09Maybe this is one of the reasons why it came back
05:12And found other areas
05:16While we were flying the drone
05:18We saw a wreck
05:21We followed it until it reached the part of the sea with a lot of garbage
05:33It covered it up
05:35And it was like it was eaten one by one
05:40It was with the garbage when it was floating
05:45It was the only wreck of the sea
05:48That was living with the garbage
05:52In a study conducted by Dr. Deyo Onda
05:55An oceanographer
05:58The garbage is not only found in the shallow parts of the sea
06:02This is the deepest part of the food entrance
06:04We're showing a raw depth of 10,045 meters
06:09The third deepest place on the planet
06:12Even below this
06:14Plastics down there
06:15It's already alarming
06:16Why is there plastic in the deepest part of the Philippines?
06:19This is an indication of how much plastic there is below the sea
06:24Plastics that people can't see are more frightening
06:29These are microplastics
06:31That could have an effect on sea creatures
06:34Like sharks
06:36The problem with plastics is that it's not the same material
06:39Plastics have a lot of small organisms and bacteria
06:44Those bacteria can also produce poison
06:47Or it can cause diseases
06:50Last November
06:51More than 30 people ate fish meat in Maguindanao del Norte
06:57Four people died here
06:59There was a prisoner
07:01He was also a resident
07:02The fish was alive
07:04Finally, they put him in jail
07:07Kilonetoxicin is the cause of stomach pain
07:10And the death of victims
07:14It's a type of food poison that can be obtained by eating fish meat
07:20Stomach pain and nausea
07:23These are just some of the symptoms of kilonetoxicin
07:27Aside from toxic
07:28Salmonella can also affect the health of humans
07:35Currently, studies on kilonetoxicin are still ongoing
07:41The survivors need to be monitored for two months
07:45Especially if they have symptoms of poisoning
07:49This 2025
07:50One of the contents of the IEC of our office
07:53Is to create a localized IEC
07:57So that I can understand
07:58Because most of our residents
08:00Have not yet studied
08:05Before we left the island
08:08We gave an educational campaign
08:10On how to take care of turtles in their natural habitat
08:17Leave the marine turtles alone
08:19Until she has laid all the eggs
08:21This island is one of the most beautiful islands I have seen
08:25Last night
08:27The baby turtles were released from the pond
08:34The baby turtles were released from the pond
08:37The baby turtles were released from the pond
08:40I just wish for them to be able to survive
08:49The turtles travel far to survive
08:54In their travels
08:55They also encounter many problems
09:00Like garbage and poaching
09:02Poaching and catching
09:05Remember that all of us have a connection
09:10Whatever we do with our nature
09:13It can also come back to us
09:28Thank you so much for watching Born To Be Wild
