I have been going back and forth to this wonderful place for almost a year now. Not entirely sure of criterion (ix) - because I am not a geologist; but for (x), the property's unique flora and fauna surely represents the natural heritage of the Mindoro biogeographic region. One endemic (and endangered) species of the park, the tamaraw (Bubalus mindorensis), is a national symbol.
Management-wise, efforts are already being undertaken to include the Mangyans - the indigenous people and residents of the park’s mountainous interior. This co-management will ensure not just the protection of the park’s natural resources, but also the conservation of the Mangyans’ culture and traditions.
