(230217) -- JIUJIANG, Feb. 17, 2023 (Xinhua) -- Researchers conduct physical examination for a finless porpoise in Songmenshan area of Poyang Lake in east China's Jiangxi Province, Feb. 15, 2023. The Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of Jiangxi Province and the Institute of Hydrobiology under the Chinese Academy of Sciences carried out a Yangtze finless porpoise relocation mission and successfully transferred two female Yangtze finless porpoises to Nanbeigang area of Poyang Lake for better protection of the iconic species in China's longest river Yangtze. Due to drought in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in 2022, over 30 finless porpoises in Songmenshan area of the Poyang Lake can't swim back to the deep water area of the channel. In this mission, a total of eight finless porpoises are expected to be transferred to the protection areas in central China's Hubei, and east China's Anhui and Jiangxi provinces. The Yangtze finless porpoise, which is under top-level state protec
