The Oriental was created from the Siamese, so it’s no surprise this breed has the same prominent ears as its cousin. It looks much like the Siamese but comes in even more coat varieties. This fun-loving breed is naturally athletic and playful, and it tends to bond very strongly to its favorite humans.

Iligan the Philippines’ City of Majestic Waterfalls deserves a spot on your bucketlist if you’re a lover of waterfalls (like me). This city in Northern Mindanao is home to many of the Philippines’ most beautiful waterfalls. My favorites in Iligan include (1) Tinago Falls with its incredibly enchanting blue-green pool surrounded by the rainforest, (2) Maria Cristina Falls (massive twin waterfall), and the remote (3) Limunsudan Falls (the highest two-tiered in the Philippines).
Falcons (Falconiformes)
Birds in Falconiformes order are highly efficient predators – Falcons. Virtually all these brown-eyed falcons have hooked bills that help tear up the prey. All these birds have well-developed sight and hearing. Currently, many Falconiformes species are endangered.
This high-energy dog loves being outdoors. Samoyeds are friendly, intelligent, and eager to please, but they also tend to be reserved.
Weight: 35-65 pounds

This large and diverse group of birds in order Galliformes includes species traditionally crucial to humans as domestic birds and hunting fowl (Chickens and Turkeys). Many Galliformes have bright crests and ornamental tails. These birds prefer to walking & running than flying and predominantly feed on the ground.
