According to the report, experts said that after so many years of protection, the number of giant pandas has reached more than 2,000, and the IUCN has been adjusted from endangered to vulnerable. Considering the fragmentation of the population and less effective population, the Yangtze finless porpoise is more endangered than the giant panda.
In addition, the Yangtze River flows through densely populated and highly developed areas. The dense population has had a serious adverse impact on the living environment of the Yangtze finless porpoise, which is no longer enough to feed the huge finless porpoise population. This is an important reason for the continuous decline of the Yangtze finless porpoise population in recent decades.
Because the Yangtze River is a waterway and a large number of ships pass through it, the noise generated by large ships will adversely affect the finless porpoise that preys and communicates by sonar system, as well as all kinds of pollution and industrial and agricultural sewage discharge, which are all reasons for destroying the ecological diversity of the Yangtze River, and the finless porpoise of the Yangtze River can not be "immune".
I hope the Yangtze finless porpoise can be effectively protected!
