湖南洞庭湖40余天发现12只江豚死亡

From March 3rd until April 15th, 12 river dolphins were discovered dead one after another in Dongting Lake in Hunan Province's Yueyang City. In the entire Yangtze River basin, only around 1,200 of this species remain, to the point that its numbers are even less than China's "National Treasure", the giant panda. Apart from Dongting Lake, Poyang Lake has also recently found river dolphins dead, with autopsies revealing that most of these river dolphins shared a common characteristic: There was no food to be found in their digestive systems.

从3月3日到4月15日，湖南岳阳洞庭湖连续续发现12只江豚死亡。整个长江流域这一物种也仅仅只剩下约1200头左右，其种群数量甚至已经比国宝大熊猫还少。不仅是洞庭湖，鄱阳湖近期也发现江豚死亡，尸体解剖发现，这些死亡的江豚大多有一个共同特点：消化系统里没有任何食物残留。
