Millions of bats and alien-looking crab on 'Born to be Wild'

BORN TO BE WILD
February 7, 2016

Doc Ferds Recio returns to Davao to revisit a popular cave with millions of bats. In 2010, Monfort Cave made it to the Guinness Book of World Records for housing the largest colony of Geoffroy’s rousette fruit bats in the world. It’s been eight years since Doc Ferds and his team first visited the bats. Today, he is amazed that the bats grew even bigger in number. But there seems to be a problem: will there be enough space in what is now an overflowing bat cave?

Doc Nielsen Donato is in Palawan to document a special species of crab.  It looks like an alien, has a hard shell that resembles a helmet, and some even say it looks like a giant cockroach! It’s none other than the fascinating horseshoe crab.
