local.seafdecaqd.extract | A swarm of jellyfish taking over El Nido, Palawan’s waters is nothing out of the ordinary, especially during the summer season, an official of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) said. “Like in Boracay, there’s this natural phenomenon that happens every year—the algal bloom. In Palawan, it’s jellyfish. These jellyfish were brought by the ocean current and usually, they end up in Corong-Corong Bay,” according to Benny Antiporda, DENR’s undersecretary for Local Government Units (LGUs) and Solid Waste Management Concerns. He added that the exceptional number of jellyfish caught on video by a netizen in El Nido is due to the fact that harvesting of jellyfish had stopped because of the Luzon-wide enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) following President Duterte’s declaration placing the entire country under a State of Public Health Emergency due to health threats brought about by Covid-19. | en |
