A cowfish cub was found stranded on the bank of the Yangtze River in Nanjing on Tuesday. The cowfish was sent to a local ocean park for a temporary rescue, but experts said that its best chance for survival is locating the cub’s mother.
The cowfish was first found by a local citizen, who reported it to police. Worried about the safety of the cowfish, the police asked a local fishery for help.
After checking on the cowfish, experts from a local ocean park suggested feeding the cub milk and searching for its mother near the place where it was found. Later, the fishery decided to send it to the ocean park until a group of experts from Wuhan could come consult on the case. How the cub became stranded in the first place is currently being studied.
Analysts said that this incident actually reflects improvements made by Nanjing in the protection of this breed. According to local regulations, field investigation, photos and video recordings made of cowfish all require prior approval.
