Month of October was declared as Tamaraw’s month per Presidential Proclamation 273 s. 2002 a ‘Special month for the conservation and protection of the tamaraw in Mindoro’’. The celebration this year is centered on the theme: “Strengthening Tamaraws and Biodiversity Conservation Amidst Pandemic” . One of the significant activities among others, undertaken every year is the TAMWorld Exhibit. The Exhibit features tamaraws and their habitat through photographs and artworks. These works of art also depict the Tau Buids culture and their products, nature and sceneries, fora and fauna. Information on the different conservation and protection initiatives can be discovered as well in the exhibit. It goes with our goal of making the Tamaraw a national pride and recognize the community of people who helped in increasing its population.
