宜昌，依江而立、因水而興，昔日以壯士斷腕之志破解「化工圍江」，如今已成為「微笑天使」長江江豚眷顧的生態綠洲。宜昌，正用一江碧水書寫萬物生靈和諧共存的生動答卷。

為講好新時代宜昌故事，宜昌三峽融媒體中心國際傳播中心推出《發現宜昌》原創中英文視頻欄目。

你知道嗎

長江里居然生活著一種「豬」

它不是佩奇

而是擁有治癒系微笑的「水中大熊貓」

長江江豚

Did you know there's a "pig" living in the Yangtze River? It's not Peppa Pig. It』s the "giant panda of the water", famous for its signature smile—the Yangtze finless porpoise.

長江江豚是中國特有的珍稀物種

也是長江中唯一存活的哺乳動物

它們天性活潑憨態可掬

常常做翻滾跳躍噴水急轉等高難度動作

風雨來臨前

它們頻繁迎風出水

因此得名「拜風」

The Yangtze finless porpoise is a rare species endemic to China, and the only remaining mammal living in the Yangtze River. These lively animals love to roll, leap, splash, and make sharp turns. Before storms, they surface more often and move into the wind, which is called "greeting the wind."

至於「江豬」這一稱呼

則源於古人的樸素觀察

你看它們在水面翻滾的圓潤身姿

是否與家豬頗有幾分相似呢

As for the nickname "river pig", it comes from ancient observers. Look at their bodies rising and falling in the water, don't they resemble chubby little pigs?

江豬

腹內有膏兩片，絕似豬肪，其肝腸心肺腰肚全是豬腹中物。

——清·聶璜《海錯圖》

江豚天生帶著微笑

被譽為「微笑天使」

然而這抹治癒的笑容

曾因生態破壞與江水污染一度黯淡

With their natural "smiles," finless porpoises are known as "smiling angels." But that smile once faded, as pollution and environmental damage caused their population to decline.

在宜昌

一場關於「微笑」的保衛戰從未停歇

宜昌全面落實長江「十年禁漁」

處置退捕漁船1878艘

安置3678名漁民轉產就業

Here in Yichang, the battle to guard this "smile" has never stopped. The city enforced the 10-year fishing ban on the Yangtze, decommissioned 1,878 fishing boats, and helped 3,678 former fishers transition to new jobs.

為破解「化工圍江」

宜昌「關改搬轉」沿江134家化工企業

整治長江、清江流域1973個入河排污口

Yichang also shut down, upgraded, relocated, or transformed 134 riverside chemical plants, cleaned up 1,973 sewage outlets in the Yangtze and Qing River basins.

在這裡，守護長江和江豚是一場全民參與的社會共治：

Here, protecting the Yangtze and the finless porpoise is a whole-of-society undertaking.

退捕漁民化身「江豚協巡隊」，八年巡護40萬公里。

Former fishers now serve on "porpoise patrol teams," covering over 400,000 kilometers in eight years.

熱心市民化身「市民觀察員」，用鏡頭記錄江豚動態的同時，為遇險江豚搭建生命熱線。

Citizen volunteers act as "spotters," documenting porpoise activity through their lenses and helping report emergencies.

環保組織化身「綠色播種機」，讓保護的理念融入城市血脈。

Environmental groups continue outreach programs, bringing conservation into everyday life.

得益於不懈的守護

宜昌江段的江豚數量

從禁漁前的兩三頭增至二十多頭

在葛洲壩、胭脂壩等水域

時常能看到它們的身影

那是長江生態復甦

最柔軟、最幸福的註腳

Thanks to these sustained efforts, the local porpoise population in the Yichang section has grown from just two or three individuals before the ban to over twenty. They are frequently sighted near Gezhouba and Yanzhiba waters. These moments have become one of the softest and most heartwarming signs of the Yangtze's recovery.
