Chinese white dolphins leap and play in the blue sea on spring day in Zhanjiang

Lingnan: Beauty Beyond Borders | The 8th of April is the International Day for the Protection of Rare Animals. On the #morning of that day, a group of video bloggers captured a school of #Chinese white #dolphins swimming and playing between the #sea and #sky in the #Leizhou Bay of Zhanjiang, creating a warm and lovely scene.

The Chinese white dolphin, known as "the giant panda in the sea", is under first-class state protection in #China. Currently, there are only about 6,000 Chinese white dolphins worldwide, with the world's second-largest population residing in Leizhou Bay, Zhanjiang during the last 20 years. And the population is stable and growing. They often gathered into dozens of heads or even nearly a hundred heads of the collection of groups. As Zhanjiang is surrounded by the sea on three sides, its superior #marine ecosystem provides an ideal habitat for the Chinese white dolphins. #SplendidLingnan
