In San Esteban, Ilocos Sur, a dead shark was caught by a local fisherman. The residents gathered around to see it and save its pups.
They were surprised to learn that it was pregnant. What they did is they cut it open, hoping that the pups can be saved.
Lauro Follero, a resident of the coastal municipality, claims that this was their first time to catch a shark of this kind. This is the reason why he decided to take a video of it and post it online.
The Municipal Agriculture Office receives six live pups but they died shortly after a couple of hours. They were just given to Bureau of Fisheries and Aquiatic Resources.
The fisherman who caught the shark worried that it might be an endangered species. However, the Municipal Agriculturist assures him that it was one of those types that can be eaten.
