[Title] => Manta rays find home in Masbate reefs
[Summary] =>
If you are fascinated with gentle creatures of the underwater world, the "manta bowl" off San Jacinto in Masbate is the place for you.
In the mid-water reefs of Sitio Tacdo—gan, Barangay Bagahanglad is a wide "playground" of giant manta rays which are locally called pasa-pasa.
Known in the science world as Manta birsotris, these gentle giants of the deep have been commonly sighted by scuba divers and coastal dwellers.

[Title] => DA unaware of manta ray fishing in Bohol
[Summary] => The Department of Agriculture and the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) are unaware of the reported open catching and selling of manta rays or mantas in Bohol.
Agriculture Secretary Leonardo Montemayor and lawyer Reuben Ganaden, BFAR’s assistant director for technical services, both admitted to The STAR yesterday that their agencies have not received any reports on the illegal activity.
Both officials, however, promised to immediately conduct an investigation into the matter.
