San Jose (1 of 2)
The flora and fauna in Palawan is quite unique to the island, and is said to have more in common with that of Borneo than with the rest of the Philippines. Due in equal parts to its rugged topography, its small population and its distance from other islands in the archipelago, Palawan has managed to stay largely pristine. On the main island of Palawan you'll find thousands of hectares of untouched forests where endemic species such as the Palawan bearcat, Palawan peacock-pheasant and Calamian deer roam.
