'Unexpected Encounters' and 'Explorations'

Episode on July 15, 2009 Wednesday night after Saksi In Zamboanga Sibugay, Doc Ferds continues his quest for unusual finds. He goes through wet and muck to discover bats that live, not in caves or trees, but in mangrove forests. But he and the team meet an unexpected sight - a beautiful wild bird trapped in one of the branches, badly in need of help. What starts out as a leisurely adventure becomes a race to save the trapped animal, and leads to an investigation into why creatures like these end up in such a state. Some say that the most majestic caves can be found in Samar. Foreigners even flock to the province to map every nook and cranny of these caves, in the name of science and exploration. Kiko visits one such cave known as "Kilometer 3" to find out what lies beneath. He is met by a difficult climb necessary to get to the cave's entrance, and another challenging rappel inside. But will it all be worth it? Slimy, slithery, wild beings also greet him in the cave. But as we reach further and further into the underground world, and more and more knowledge is achieved, are we also responsible for the impact that we leave in these places? Born to be Wild airs this Wednesday after Saksi!

Patuloy ang adventure ni Doc Ferds sa Zamboanga Sibugay. Matapos makaharap ang daan-daang sea snake, isa na namang kakaibang lugar ang kaniyang bibisitahin - ang mangrove forest kung saan hindi lang mga isda o alimango ang nakatira, kundi mga paniki! Nakatutuwa ang kaniyang makikita ngunit ang nagsimula bilang masayang adventure ay magiging isang wildlife mission nang matagpuan ni Doc at ng grupo ang isang malaking ibon na sugatan sa gitna ng mga bakawan. Isang emosyonal na tagpo ang matutunghayan. Ayon sa ilang caver, ang pinakamagagandang kuweba raw ay matatagpuan sa Samar. Dinarayo pa ang probinsya ng mga explorer para sa cave mapping o ang patuklas, at paggawa ng mapa ng bawat sulok ng mga kweba. Samu't saring kaalaman ang matutuklasan sa pamamagitan nito. Papasukin ni Kiko ang kilometer 3 cave sa Samar, kung saan kamakailan lang ay nagsagawa ng exploration ang ilang dayuhan. Ano nga ba ang kahalagahan ng ganitong mga pagtuklas? At paano ba natin dapat pangalagaan ang bawat bagong lugar na ating binubuksan? Huwag palalampasin ang Born to be Wild ngayong Miyerkules pagkatapos ng Saksi!
