The Philippine eagle is listed as critically endangered by the IUCN Red List<ref>http://www.birdlife.org/datazone/species/index.html?action=SpcHTMDetails.asp&sid=3528&m=0</ref><ref>http://www.iucnredlist.org/apps/redlist/details/144490/0</ref>; the four islands which still support populations of these eagles (Luzon, Samar, Leyte and Mindanao) report approximately 300 breeding pairs, with the bulk of the pairs on Mindanao (82-233 pairs).  Deforestation continues to occur within these islands, reducing the bird's range and food availability.  Sporadic hunting has also taken a toll, despite laws on the books resulting in heavy fines and long prison sentences for killing one.
