How to kill Chinese sturgeon
The Chinese sturgeon is a rare fish unique to China and is a national first-level protected animal. Hunting and eating are strictly prohibited. This article only introduces the biological characteristics and conservation status of Chinese sturgeon from a popular science perspective, and compiles recent hot topics on the Internet for readers' reference.
1. Current status of Chinese sturgeon conservation
The Chinese sturgeon is the flagship species in the Yangtze River Basin and is known as the "giant panda in the water." Due to overfishing, habitat destruction and other factors, the Chinese sturgeon population has declined sharply. After the implementation of the ban on fishing in the entire Yangtze River basin in 2022, the protection of Chinese sturgeons has made phased progress.
| Year | Wild population size | protective measures |
|---|---|---|
| 2010 | About 200 tails | Establish nature reserves |
| 2020 | Less than 100 | Total arrest ban |
| 2023 | 3,000 animals were bred in captivity | Breeding and release |
2. Recent hot topics on the Internet
According to the Internet popularity monitoring in the past 10 days, the following are hot topics related to ecological protection:
| Ranking | topic | heat index | Related events |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Yangtze River Ecological Restoration | 9.8 | Mid-term assessment of ten-year fishing ban in Yangtze River |
| 2 | Biodiversity protection | 8.7 | COP15 follow-up actions |

| 4 | Water ecological management | 6.9 | Taihu blue algae prevention and control |
| 5 | Alien species invasion | 6.2 | Alligator gar killing incident |
3. Progress in Chinese Sturgeon Protection Technology
Chinese scientific researchers have achieved a number of breakthrough results in the protection of Chinese sturgeons:
| Technical field | Research progress | Application effect |
|---|---|---|
| Artificial breeding | Breakthrough in fully artificial breeding technology | The survival rate of juvenile fish increased to 60% |
| gene protection | Establish a genetic resource library | Save genetic information of 12 families |
| Habitat Restoration | Construction of simulated spawning ground | Successful induction of natural spawning |
| Tracking and monitoring | Sonar tagging technology | Master the migration route |
4. Methods for public participation in protection
The general public can participate in the protection of Chinese sturgeons in the following ways:
1. Refuse to buy or eat wild animal products
2. Participate in conservation activities initiated by environmental organizations
3. Report illegal fishing
4. Support eco-friendly products
5. Spread correct conservation knowledge
5. Legal Punishment Provisions
According to the Wildlife Protection Law, illegal hunting of Chinese sturgeons will face severe penalties:
| Illegal behavior | administrative penalty | criminal liability |
|---|---|---|
| illegal fishing | Fine of 100,000-500,000 yuan | Up to 10 years in prison |
| illegal trade | Confiscation of illegal gains | If it constitutes a crime, you will be held accountable |
| destroy habitat | Restoration to original status within time limit | Compensate for ecological losses |
Protecting the Chinese sturgeon is protecting the Yangtze River ecosystem, and everyone should become a practitioner of ecological civilization. Let us work together to protect these precious "living fossils" and leave a rich biodiversity legacy for future generations.
