Extinct White Dolphin Spotted in China

Six years ago scientists in China all but concluded that the white dolphin, at home in the Yangtze river, was extinct.
Recently, however, a white dolphin cub was sighted in Anhui province.
Some 70-80cm in length and a long snout could be seen on this baiji.
Some say this species of dolphin lived some 20 million years ago…if you believe in an old earth.
Baiji's cousin, the bottlenose dolphin, is on the endangered species list.
Oh yeah…the one that was recently spotted…was dead.
If they aren't extinct, Yangtze river pollution will surely kill them.
