  Subsequently, the Nanjing finless porpoise reserve carried out a continuous search for several days. By the afternoon of January 29th, it was basically locked. The activity of this sick finless porpoise was basically fixed in the waters between the Happy Stage and Hongyun Bridge, and many photographers took a lot of clearer photos.

  Jiang Meng said: "Experts judge that the illness is very serious, including respiratory infection. We finally found that its breathing frequency is 10 seconds, which is much higher than the breathing frequency of finless porpoises. Experts believe that it should be treated as soon as possible. "

  The life span of finless porpoises is about 20 years. During its lifetime, finless porpoises will encounter many dangers, including the survival of the fittest in the natural environment and intentional or unintentional injuries from the human world. It is no accident that this sick finless porpoise was found in Nanjing. Since Nanjing officially started the protection of finless porpoise in 2014, a group of finless porpoise volunteers and photography teams have been active. They stayed by the river from morning till night, kept tracking the finless porpoise with their eyes and lenses, and woven an invisible net for its protection.

  It is very difficult to rescue fishing

  Do your best while there is hope.

  On the afternoon of February 2, the reporter came to the dock of the law enforcement detachment of Nanjing Maritime Safety Administration on Jiangbian South Road in Nanjing and saw that many search and rescue vessels were ready to go. This rescue plan does not take the initiative to drive away, but takes the form of ambush.

  The staff of the on-site search and rescue team told the reporter: "Connect the nets first, and connect the surrounding walls like a protective wall on the shore."

  Jiang Meng, secretary-general of the Nanjing finless porpoise aquatic biological protection association, said: "Large ships can’t get off the net. The finless porpoise is on the water, and we have to use boats or even unpowered boats to gradually push the finless porpoise to the shore. In the past two days, we mobilized and requisitioned these boats from all directions, and tried to drive the finless porpoise to a fixed area on the beach to rescue the finless porpoise. Because it may have no way to heal itself in water. "

  On the afternoon of the 2 nd, after more than three hours of continuous search, the staff on the four ships did not gain anything at the beginning. At 17:01 on the same day, the sick finless porpoise once again appeared in the waters near the Yangtze River Smile Station, and was judged to have decreased mobility.

  Jiang Meng said: "The whole rescue and tracking is very difficult. Tracking in the Yangtze River, especially in bad weather, when our ship approached slightly, it swam away because it avoided the ship. After tracking, it is very, very difficult to fish in the open water, especially in the past two days when the weather is bad, the temperature is falling and it is raining and snowing. Rescuing and fishing sick wild finless porpoises in natural waters is the first case in China, and we can only do our best. "

  Looking forward to this "smiling angel"

  Get treatment as soon as possible!
