local.seafdecaqd.extractThe Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) has cited three fishermen from Aparri, Cagayan who released back to the sea an endangered Pacific green turtle that was accidentally caught in their fishing net. Citing a report from its Aparri station, PCG headquarters in Manila did not name the fishermen, but said itwas encouraging other fisher folk to follow their example should they also catch some endangered species. Lt. Cmdr. Armand Balilo, the PCG spokesperson, yesterday said "a Pacific green turtle (scientific name: Chelonia mydas), measuring 43 inches by 38 inches, was unintentionally caught in the net of three Aparri fishermen last Friday."en
