Yangtze River Dolphin Extinct...or Not


The Yangtze River Dolphin the experts announced after a fruitless 6 week search for one, is now extinct. However, somebody took a recent video of one so perhaps not, although certainly the Yangtze is not teeming with them. Good news actually (the later report).

Good news indeed although the sighting was in Anhui Province on the lower reaches of the Yangtze below the Three Gorges Dam. One in Three people in China live on the Yangtze or one of its tributaries. Pollution is a problem and the lake created by the TGD promises to become the world's largest open sewer.
