    Excerpt
    Like other graveyards, a fish cemetery here draws visitors this time of the year. Thousands visit the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources-National Integrated Fisheries Technology Development Center to see the cemetery, where 35 sea animals including whale sharks, dolphins and sea turtles are buried, Wesley Rosario, center chief, said. "Modesty aside, they are conveniently laid to rest...similar to those in memorial gardens or parks," Rosario said.
