EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored engraving depicts the vulnerable Philippine Sambar, scientifically known as Rusa marianna, or Cervus mariannus. The Philippine Sambar, also referred to as the Rusa of the Mariannas, is a critically endangered ruminant species native to the northernmost islands of the Philippines, including Marinduque, Catanduanes, and Luzon. The Philippine Sambar is a medium-sized deer with a reddish-brown coat, white underbelly, and distinctive black markings on its face. They have large, pointed ears and a short, straight, and slender horn that curves backward. This species is adapted to living in dense forests and swamps, making them elusive and challenging to spot in the wild. The Philippine Sambar was first described scientifically by the French naturalist Georges Cuvier in 1825, based on a specimen that was obtained from the Philippines. The illustration in this print was created by the renowned English natural history artist Charles Hamilton Smith and was published in Edward Griffith's The Animal Kingdom by the Baron Cuvier in 1827. The engraving was later produced by Thomas Landseer, the son of the famous English animal painter Sir Edwin Landseer. Unfortunately, the Philippine Sambar population has declined significantly due to habitat loss, hunting, and competition with domestic livestock. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), there are estimated to be fewer than 2,000 individuals remaining in the wild. Conservation efforts are underway to protect this rare and beautiful species, including habitat restoration, community-based conservation programs, and anti-poaching initiatives. This stunning hand-colored engraving is a testament to the natural beauty and diversity of the Philippine archipelago and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the world's endangered species for future generations.
