Meet the Mindoro Bleeding‑Heart Dove (Gallicolumba platenae), one of the rarest and most beautiful birds in the Philippines. Endemic to Mindoro Island, this dove is named for the vivid red patch on its chest that resembles a bleeding wound. Shy and ground‑dwelling, it quietly forages in dense tropical forests, making it a symbol of fragility and resilience.
In this episode of Zoo Animals Know‑How, we uncover fascinating facts about the Mindoro Bleeding‑Heart Dove, explore its unique behavior, and highlight the urgent conservation challenges it faces. With fewer than a few hundred individuals left, habitat loss and hunting threaten its survival. Learn how conservationists and local communities are working to protect this critically endangered species, and why it is considered an EDGE bird—Evolutionarily Distinct and Globally Endangered.
