00:00Sometimes, when we're feeling down, we feel like we're at home even if we're in a different house.
00:05Here, someone also felt at home, Brother Kim.
00:07Bayawak!
00:08Bayawak?
00:08Yes, there was a bayawak in the window of a house in San Pedro, Laguna.
00:13This is the first time that residents have seen a bayawak in the area.
00:17How did the bayawak come to be?
00:19That's the story and public affairs that Doc Ferds is addressing in Born to be Wild.
00:31In a house in Marilao, Bulacan, you can see a row of chicken cages.
00:37In one of the cages, there's a strange animal.
00:44This is the Marbled Water Monitor Lizard or bayawak.
00:48Part of it moves in its cage and the bayawak just rests.
00:53But don't get too close to it.
00:57Because when it gets angry...
01:02On Thursday, I was supposed to do it in the morning.
01:05Now, I heard that it was making noise.
01:07When I saw that it was moving, I heard that it was big.
01:11So I told it not to kill it.
01:13The bayawak is almost 2 meters long and has a width of 6 inches.
01:23It's big and strong.
01:25Hold it here.
01:26It's heavy.
01:27It's a big bayawak.
01:29It has two defenses.
01:32We brought the bayawak to a release site in Marilao.
01:35It's big.
01:39Before it went missing, I examined the aggressive bayawak again.
01:43It's injured.
01:44It looks like it's teeth were removed.
01:47The upper teeth were removed.
01:50The lower teeth are gone.
01:52Look at its teeth.
01:54The upper teeth are small.
01:56It's serrated.
01:57It's slanted even though it's small.
01:59Its body is okay.
02:00It looks okay.
02:03It has skin and everything.
02:04It has a few scratches but it's generally healthy.
02:09I can release this back.
02:14This bayawak was caught in the window of a house in San Pedro, Laguna.
02:20Meanwhile, this bayawak was helped by a resident of Lito in the cage of his cats.
02:27This bayawak is juvenile.
02:30A friend of mine came to me, the owner of the house.
02:33He told me,
02:34there's a bayawak in the screen.
02:36I think it came from the top of the house.
02:39There's a GMA there.
02:40I might have joined the infernal.
02:43It went down here.
02:45This is what usually goes through the holes.
02:49This is the normal size of a bayawak.
02:52It's in the cage because it's looking for water.
02:59Relax.
03:01Look at its tail.
03:02It's going to bite.
03:04It's going to bite.
03:09It's calm.
03:10Its mouth is okay.
03:12There are no wounds.
03:14Its snout is okay.
03:16It will heal.
03:18Meanwhile, this bayawak will be left in the care of the rescue center in Laguna.
03:25In the destruction of the habitat of bayawaks,
03:27they are wandering in the places of people.
03:31Not to get hurt.
03:33Maybe they're just looking for food or for a while to continue
03:38until they can return to their natural habitat.
03:48To be continued...
