Sturgeon released into Yangtze River
中华鲟长江鲟成功放流
Over 3,000 captive-bred sturgeons were released into the middle reaches of the Yangtze River Sunday to revive the wild population of the endangered Chinese sturgeon and Dabry's sturgeon. The release of 2,020 Chinese sturgeons and 1,000 Dabry's sturgeons took place in the city of Jingzhou, central China's Hubei province. Dabry's sturgeon, also known as the Yangtze sturgeon, has lost its natural ability to reproduce since 2000 due to overfishing and crowded rivers, among others.
为补充恢复野外种群资源，3月28日，3000多尾人工养殖的濒危物种中华鲟和长江鲟被放流到湖北省荆州市的长江中游。此次增殖放流的中华鲟子二代合计2020尾，长江鲟子二代共计1000尾。由于过度捕捞和河流拥挤等原因，长江鲟自2000年以来未发生自然繁殖。
Nicknamed "aquatic pandas," Chinese sturgeons have existed for more than 140 million years. The size of the population of the flagship species in the Yangtze, however, plummeted in the late 20th century due to intrusive human activities.
有着"水中大熊猫"之称的中华鲟已经在地球上生活了1.4亿年。在20世纪末，由于人类活动的侵入，这两种长江水生生物保护旗舰物种的自然种群规模急剧减少。
In recent years, China has stepped up efforts to rescue the Dabry's sturgeon and other endangered endemic species in the river, such as Chinese sturgeon, said Wei Qi of the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences. According to Wei, about seven million captive-bred Chinese sturgeons have been released in the Yangtze River since 1983.
中国水产科学研究院党组书记魏琦说，中国已经加大了对长江鲟和中华鲟等濒危物种的救助力度。自1983年以来，已在长江放流大约700万尾人工养殖的中华鲟。
