A CGTN team just took us on a virtual deep dive into the Yangtze River’s ecological comeback story – and honestly? It’s way more exciting than your average nature doc! 🌍
At the heart of the Three Gorges, reporters explored the Yangtze River Rare Fish Breeding Base where scientists are basically playing real-life \"Pokémon Rescue\" with endangered species. The star of the show? The ancient Chinese sturgeon – a living fossil that’s survived since the dinosaur era but now needs human help to avoid extinction. 🦖💔→❤️🩺
\"We’re not just saving fish,\" explained marine biologist Dr. Li Ming. \"We’re rebalancing an entire ecosystem that 400 million people depend on.\" Through high-tech breeding programs and habitat restoration, teams have increased rare fish populations by 58% since 2020 – a stat that’s got environmentalists doing happy dances! 🕺🐠
