Tribute to the Goddess of the Yangtze

The Yangtze river dolphin is but one example of the indiscriminate destruction that our kind infilicts every waking minute on the very world it depends on. I believe that much, much more could have been done to protect this unique and wonderful species.

Near the end of the video you see a captive finless porpoise. There are fewer than 400 of these animals surviving in the Yangtze river, and the death of the baiji species should create greater pressure to save them from the same fate.

The song is "Raindrops", composed by Roy Phillips.
