As of the latest estimates, the Yangtze river dolphin, also known as the baiji, is considered functionally extinct, with no confirmed sightings since 2002. Conservation efforts have failed to locate any remaining individuals, and the species was declared critically endangered prior to its presumed extinction. Various factors, including habitat loss, pollution, and overfishing, have contributed to its decline.
only a few
Several species of dolphins are endangered for many reasons. The Yangtze river dolphin is endangered, practically extinct, due to the small area it lives in, the river Yangtze, which is a very busy boat route. Many other species are endangered due to illegal catching of dolphins and because of fishing nets that trap them.
The Baiji was a freshwater dolphin found in the Yangtze River in China. No confirmed sighting have been reported since 2004 and it is thought to be extinct.
