The Yangtze River, known as the longest river in Asia, is not only a vital waterway but also a critical habitat for various species. One such species is the Yangtze finless porpoise, the world's one and only species of freshwater porpoise.
The Yangtze finless porpoise lacks the dorsal fin that you'd typically find on a marine cetacean. The river dolphin faces critical threats to its habitat.
