Comments on: New River Dolphin Species http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/boliv-dolph/ for Bigfoot, Loch Ness, and More Sun, 22 Nov 2009 03:28:30 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 By: gkingdano http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/boliv-dolph/#comment-42461 gkingdano Fri, 02 May 2008 13:47:02 +0000 http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/boliv-dolph/#comment-42461 I hope that Bolivia truely enforces any conservation laws(if they have any)against any actions that could harm this intelligent animal and not that their actions are ONLY in the newspapers and paper. I am sure that this NEW species was known before and that the DNA analysis was finally conducted. I have always been interested in the many river dolphin species. And hope this one does not go like the chinese one. I know that I will never be able to see one of these in the wild, but just knowing that they are free to live in their own home river makes the world just a little bit better. At least there are not any stories on the locals killing and eating them (I HOPE).

Maybe wishful thinking, but, well... you know. Beautiful animals, aren't they. I wish we could communicate with them.

It is by no means compensation for that, but still a bit of positive news regarding Cetaceans.

I would hate to see another episode of what happened to the "Baiji" Yangtze river dolphins. :-( Let’s hope that these newly classified Bolivian dolphins, as well as the standard Amazon river dolphins, get the protection they deserve.

Great news. Thanks for the post Loren. There are so many new species being discovered in the Amazon basin. I hope deforestation is not the culprit. Wow another mammal species discovered. Great news.
