Mt. Iglit is one of Mindoro's reservation areas,declared as a game sanctuary for tamaraws,wild animals found nowhere else in the world. The tamaraw bears a close resemblance to the Philippine water buffalo,commonly known as carabao. However,it is smaller and has shorter horns growing straight upwards forming a V.
How to get there:

There are charter and commuter flights to Lubang Island. It is also accessible by boat and interfiled vessels in just two and a half hours travel to Abra de Ilog,and 16 hours to San Jose,the main port of the province.
