Abstract

The Yangtze finless porpoise (YFP) is the only cetacean species in freshwater following the functional extinction of the baiji ( Lipotes vexillifer ). Health management, disease treatment, and other special measures are important for maintaining the existing YFP populations, especially in in situ and ex situ reserves.
