local.seafdecaqd.extractThe gathering of world-class kapis shells and other similar species of shells is now banned in Capiz. The ban came after Mayor Antonio del Rosario signed into law an ordinance passed by the city council to save the famous shells from extinction. Councilor Mark Ortiz, sponsor of the measure, said the over-exploitation of such "commercially valuable shellfish" varieties has resulted in their disappearance in recent years and led to the possibility of their being extinct.en
