Nicknamed "aquatic panda," the Chinese sturgeon is a species under first-class state protection in China. Due to overfishing, shipping, and pollution accidents in the past, it is now on the verge of extinction.
China Three Gorges Corp has released more than 5.3 million Chinese sturgeons into the Yangtze River to restore the wild population of the species.
Researchers will continue to track and monitor the released Chinese sturgeons and evaluate the effect of the release.
