今日, 收到來自中國科學水生生物研究所的E-mail& 好珍貴的相!!!!

好興奮, 因為期待已久的BB出世了!!!!!!
這是研究所的第二條由人工飼養下出生的江豚!!!!
令人感動的一幕!!!

(江豚bb食奶)
"In our Baiji Dolphinarium, a new Yangtze finless porpoise calf was born in 2, Jun."

今年年初一月, 我們兩個女仔去了江西,
參與湖口水域與長江江豚移動規律研究記的考察,
去到中國科學水生生物研究所, 見到的, 是大著肚的江豚媽媽!!!
懷孕期11個月!!!!
期待已久......終於出世了!!!!
真是好開心呢!!!
一家三口!!!


可惜........這份開心喜悅只是持續了好短好短的時間.........

"Unfortunately, his mother passed away about 40 days later.
The calf was too young to eat small fish.
Though we prepared aritficial milk for him, it was no use,
and he followd his mother to the other world."

再見了......

"據研究資料表明, 現時長江江豚已不足2000條......"
"江豚懷孕期約11個月, 每胎產一子, 偶有兩子"
"哺育期約6個月"

原來人工飼養都有一定難道的......

好想為江豚保育出一分力,
但突然感覺到無能為力......
