Nowadays, due to human activities, the number of finless porpoises living in the Yangtze River has been reduced greatly to less than 1,000. They are on the edge of extinction. Therefore, we would like to get your aid and direction about how to protect them.

I would appreciate it if you could take my suggestion into consideration and reply to me at your earliest convenience.
