Rare dolphin 'sighted' in China
Quote:
The critically endangered Yangtze River dolphin, or baiji, has been sighted in eastern China, Chinese media report.
Scientists had recently declared that the baiji was probably extinct.
An international team of researchers spent six weeks looking for the creature last year without a single sighting.
But earlier this month the baiji was spotted and filmed by a local man, and confirmed by Chinese biologists, says official Xinhua news agency.

Lets hope this is a baiji they have found but if there are only a few left you have to wonder how long it will be before this species is extinct
