Chinese White Dolphin Population in Qinzhou's Sanniang Bay Rises from Fewer than 100 to Over 300
Aug 1, 2024, 01:54 AM
In the past two decades, the population of Chinese white dolphins in Qinzhou's Sanniang Bay in Guangxi has increased from fewer than 100 to over 300. This growth safeguards their numbers in the wild and ensures a sustainable reproduction rate. The global population of Chinese white dolphins is estimated at around 5,000, and they thrive in shallow coastal areas where freshwater and seawater converge, offering them a diverse range of food sources. Efforts to protect these dolphins included adjusting port construction in the coastal Chinese city since 2004, which significantly contributed to the population boost.
