Bye Bye Baiji


The Baiji (also known as the Yantze River Dolphin) has been declared extinct. There could be a few left though. They were last spotted in 2002, and when groups such as W.W.T. went out for six weeks to search for it last year, they couldn't find a single one.
Doctor Sam Turvey from the Zoological Society of London had this to say:
"Even if there are a few left, we can't find them and we can't do anything to stop their extinction."
He described this news as shocking and tragic.
Post you views about this upsetting news in the comment form.
Thank you.
