The 10 most endangered forests in the world (With Pictures)

4. Philippines, Asia-Pacific

The Philippines hotspot spread across more than 7,100 islands. Over 6,000 plant species can be counted in the tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, and there are many bird species like the Philippine eagle, the second-largest eagle in the world, as well as amphibian species like the panther flying frog with adaptations for gliding, such as extra skin flap and webbed fingers and toes, etc., found here. The place is being rapidly cleared for farming and the accommodation of the rising population, besides being logged for timber products, leaving about 7% of the original habitat.
