| Abstract: |
Mount Kitanglad Range (MKR) is located in the north-central portion of Bukidnon, Mindanao, Philippines.
MKR has unique ecological features, such as connected landscapes and an immense natural diversity of flora and fauna, combined with aunique interplay of cultural communities that contributes significantly to the national economy and heritage. However, the ecologically important features are threatened.
To provide legal basis for pursuing actions for conservation andprotection, the MKR area was proclaimed a national park by Presidential Proclamation No. 667 on December 14, 1990. It was reclassified as a natural park by Presidential Proclamation No. 896 in 1996. It became a fully fledged protected area as Mount Kitanglad Range Natural Park through the Republic Act 8978, known as the Mount Kitanglad Act of 2000. |
