Protection of the Monkey-Eating Eagle

The law prohibits killing, hunting, wounding, or capturing the Monkey-eating Eagle.
Destruction, disturbance, or removal of the nests or eggs of the Monkey-eating Eagle is also banned.
Violations of these prohibitions are subject to penalties as defined in Section 5.
The Secretary of Agriculture and Natural Resources is tasked with creating and implementing rules and regulations for enforcement within 90 days from the effectivity of the law.
Development of the rules and regulations requires consultation with the Director of Parks and Wildlife and the Philippine Wildlife Conservation Foundation.

The Director of Parks and Wildlife is mandated to create necessary sanctuaries to effectively preserve the Monkey-eating Eagle.
The Director can seek assistance from the National Science Development Board, private organizations such as the Philippine Wildlife Conservation Foundation, the World Wildlife Fund, and the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources.
Assistance may include financial grants, technical cooperation, and other support necessary to implement the law.

An initial fund of One Hundred Thousand Pesos (P100,000.00) is appropriated from the National Treasury to support the establishment and maintenance of sanctuaries.
This fund also covers ecological studies including habitat, dietary needs, predator-prey dynamics, and other necessary conservation measures.
Future funding allocations shall be incorporated into the General Appropriations Act.

Individuals violating any provision of the law face imprisonment in the form of prision correctional or a fine ranging from Six Hundred Pesos (P600.00) to One Thousand Pesos (P1,000.00), or both, at the Court’s discretion.
Repeat offenders shall be punished with both imprisonment and fines.
In cases of insolvency, offenders serve subsidiary imprisonment corresponding to the penalty.

All prior laws, orders, rules, and regulations that conflict with this Act are repealed to ensure consistency and effectiveness of the protection measures.
