It is reported that the Wuhan Whitefin Dolphin Protection Foundation and Jiangxi Aquatic Biology Protection and Rescue Center have jointly launched this time. openly recruited names to the public through the Internet. After multiple rounds of screening such as public voting and expert selection, the name "Hanbao" was finally determined from the more than 1,800 names collected. A researcher told reporters that the name "Hanbao" is a pun. Han is the abbreviation of Wuhan. It was born in Wuhan; the treasure is baby , which is a finless porpoise baby born in Wuhan. Another meaning is "Hanbao" as fat as the hamburger you eat, just in line with its body shape.
"Hanbao" is a male fin dolphin hall born in the Institute of Aquatics, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Mom Yangyang is from Puyang Lake, and dad Taotao was born in Wuhan Bailiu Dolphin Hall. It is the first Yangtze River Dolphin Hall born under artificial environment in my country. Now the little "Hanbao" has become the second generation of finless porpoises that is bred in artificial environment at hand in my country. Hanbao is now two years old and has entered a sub-adult state.
Researchers said that "Hanbao"'s overall physical condition is still very good, very nutritious, very fat, and he is a little fat man. Until now, it still maintains the size of baby fat . The successful breeding of "Hanbao" is an important stage or an important milestone for the artificial breeding and breeding research project, because it marks the entry of our research on artificial breeding and breeding of Yangtze River porpoises into a new stage. We have a comprehensive understanding of the reproductive physiology and reproductive laws of this species . So his significance is still very important.
