[HIGHLIGHTS] "30 years of protection of finless porpoises has fulfilled a dream: "release" and "boudoir" released into the Yangtze River

First time in China to try to "wild" the finless porpoise in the ex-situ reserve into the Yangtze River. Two 25-year-old male finless Porpoises happily rushed into the river at the moment of release.

Researchers deployed a new RPCD real-time acoustic image monitoring and early warning platform to collect information on the location of the porpoises. The probability of survival in the main stream of the YangTze River after release is very high.
