00:00There are places where sharks can only be found in shallow areas of the sea.
00:12And with their abundance, you'd think they wouldn't disappear.
00:19But the young sharks are going through something.
00:30It's my first time in the Apo Reef Natural Park in Mindoro.
00:41Look at this white sand. It's like a virgin island for me.
00:49But I'm not the only one visiting the island.
00:55Migratory seabirds are a must.
01:00It's important to be patient here so you can observe their behaviours.
01:08Perfect Place is the perfect place for a black nape turn.
01:14To find a partner, to get a date, you need to take a bath first.
01:24Then, it's time to start looking good for a female turn.
01:30He's going to show me his courtship. He said he's going to groom me first.
01:35He brought a fish. Approved!
01:43When their mating is fruitful, they will serve this place as their home.
01:49Just like the eggs we caught.
01:55It's dangerous for ghost crabs.
01:59If there's a chance, they might attack the eggs.
02:06Their family will be formed in a few days.
02:14Here in the Apo Reef, they're not that active.
02:21The Apo Reef Natural Park was built for migratory birds to rest and breed.
02:30In this limestone, we saw a new type of bridled turn.
02:37This one looks like it's still weakening.
02:41They don't actually use nesting materials.
02:45They're already used to the limestone.
02:50This is their way to avoid predators such as sea snakes and big birds.
02:58Look at this.
03:00Usually, the chicks will slowly release their eggs until half of it hatches.
03:08Not only seabirds live in the lagoon.
03:15There are also other children who live and hide in the lagoon.
03:21They are the young blacktip sharks.
03:25It makes it a good haven for young sharks to grow.
03:30They also have a lot of food here.
03:46When they were born, they were left in the lagoon.
03:52At first, I only saw them one by one.
03:59At first, I only saw them one by one.
04:04Until...
04:07A group of young sharks passed by our camera.
04:15A group of young sharks passed by our camera.
04:20Here in Apo Reef, they are not that active.
04:26That's why we can see them in groups.
04:29Sometimes, they come close to you.
04:32It's fun.
04:34They're like baby sharks.
04:36When the young sharks reach the right age,
04:39they will come out of the lagoon to face the bigger challenges ahead.
04:53Apo Reef is the second largest reef in the world.
04:57This is my time to experience Apo Reef.
05:10Underneath, even if there's only one shark,
05:14there are others who become neighbors.
05:20Like hawksbill turtles.
05:26These two are very busy eating.
05:40If the young sharks are together in the lagoon,
05:46when they reach the sea,
05:49they need to swim alone to survive.
05:54We also saw the airport of hawksbill turtles.
05:58It really looks like an airport.
06:00That's where they land.
06:02I think we saw around nine sharks.
06:07Nine sharks.
06:12Apo Reef Natural Park is one of the important resorts for the sharks.
06:19After being closed for two years due to the pandemic,
06:24the number of sharks on the island has increased.
06:28Like the young bronzeback snake.
06:31There's an ass.
06:33I saw an ass under the bench.
06:35Let's take a look.
06:40It's a bronzeback.
06:42Hello, baby.
06:44It's still small.
06:48It got you.
06:50Okay, I won't hurt you.
06:52This is what we call a bronzeback.
06:54Its fins are red.
06:56It has stripes on its tail.
06:59Let's take a look.
07:01Let's take a look.
07:09Apo Reef Natural Park is the second largest atoll reef in the world.
07:18It's important for marine organisms like sharks.
07:24Our reefs are important because they provide shelter.
07:27That's how important Apo Reef is in the life cycle of these migratory birds.
07:38But even though it's a difficult destination, there are enemies who came.
07:42Oh my God, what is this?
07:45The fish.
07:47These are traps for fish.
07:51It means that there are problems here with invasive species.
07:58The only way that we're addressing them is we put rat traps.
08:02We can't set up a nest for the fish because we have birds that are sand dwellers.
08:10What we can see is that the wildlife in Apo Reef is continuously multiplying,
08:16like the baby sharks and birds.
08:19This is a good example that if we continue to provide protection in one place,
08:28many lives will be saved.
08:34Thank you so much for watching Borneo TV.
