Endangered sturgeon tracked by chips in China
2005823
In China, more than 1000 endangered sturgeons have been implanted with microchips and released back into the Yangtze River (Long River).
This is a project to study their migration habits. Most of the sturgeons were raised in captivity, but some of them were accidentally caught by fishermen.
It is believed that the sturgeons are facing the danger of extinction.
