Celebrating a survivor
Trainer and caretaker Wang Zhiyuan communicates with Duoduo, a finless porpoise, at an aquarium in Wuhan on Sunday, a day before International Freshwater Dolphin Day. The finless porpoise population has dwindled to less than 1,000, found mainly in the Yangtze River and connecting lakes. The aquarium is part of the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
