Question by swimmer_dude02: What do you think about the extinction of the yangtze river dolphin? and what are the other four river dolphin
what are the names of all four species of river dolphins?
Best answer:
Answer by typetive
There are three different true river dolphin species:
– Ganges & Indus River Dolphin
– Boto (Amazon)
– Baiji (Yangtzee River)
There is another called La Plata which is found in both rivers and close along the coast in South America in the La Plata estuary area. (They can tolerate salt water but are not oceanic dolphins.)
All are extremely threatened by human development in those rivers and as you mentioned, the Baiji was recently declared extinct (though a few animals may live in the wild, it is extremely unlikely that they are a viable breeding population). The isolation of those species is part of what makes it especially difficult for them to survive as top level predators.

Question by CaseyCliche: how much money was compensated to the people relocated on the yangtze river?
from the three gorges dam project, i know that the people were forced to be relocated and were given money compensation, but that it was low, how much was it approximately?
actually, money has already been compensated. This summer I went to locations along the Yangtze river and spoke with families who were affected by the Three Gorges Dam, and they were compensated, they would not tell me however how much they were given, only to add that it was very little.
Best answer:
Answer by Sparrow
The Three Gorges Dam
One example is the dam failures of 1975 that devastated the Henan province and claimed over 200,000 lives but was only recently made known to the public. And while many still fear to offer public criticism against the government within China, it is notable that Dai Qing has been interviewed by numerous foreign press organizations including the BBC.
Li Boning head the Three Gorges Migration Office and plans to resettle and compensate the affected population into the local region. Initially it was hoped that a substantial amount of displaced people (between 1.1. & 1.9 million) would be transported to other provinces. This plan failed when receiving provinces refused to welcome them. Now they are relying on enough uncultivated land in the surrounding areas to provide for the farmers and the budget to afford them new housing and urban developments. Advocates of the dam say government investment and the creation of the Three Gorges Special Economic Zone will draw foreign investors and provide for those who have lost their livelihoods. Critics insist that the environmental capacity of the region is already overtaxed by excessive cultivation and deforestation. The government is accused of estimating too small a resettlement population and an inadequate budget to accommodate them. The loss of residential and industrial resources is far too great, critics say, for the government to compensate. They cite mass relocations undertaken in the past where migrants have resided in makeshift housing for years with insufficient employment and little compensation on account of bad planning and dishonest use of funds among other reasons.
Up to now no compensation has been fixed or funded.

Question by Bojan Jankovic: Li River or Yangtze River?
I am having a very hard time choosing between doing a cruise on the Li Jiang River or the Yangtze River. Which one do you think would be a more scenic experience?
Best answer:
Answer by Alex S
Wow, either one would be gorgeous and the experience of a lifetime. I suggest that you choose depending on how much time you have to spend on the river. A Yangtze River cruise will involve about three days and two nights on the water. It’s gorgeous, but some people find it a bit boring after awhile. On the other hand, some people think it’s the perfect relaxing break in a busy schedule.
“The” Li River cruise is just a half day ride. It’s also spectacularly beautiful, but there’s a lot to see and do in the Guilin / Yangshuo area. For instance, it’s very popular to stay in Yangshuo overnight and go bicycling on dirt paths in the nearby vicinity, or you could base yourselves in Guilin and go see the “Dragon’s Backbone” rice fields that are terraced up the sides of steep mountains.
In either case, depending on how adventurous you are, I’d recommend getting away from the crush of tourists by avoiding the pre-booked tours that specialize in squeezing money out of rich, stupid westerners. Do a lot of research on the internet and also ask for customer references from any tour companies! 🙂 The English language version of http://www.ctrip.com has an interesting China guide: http://english.ctrip.com/Destinations/DestinationGuides.asp which you can use as a starting point to think about destinations inside China.
Have fun!
