Yes, as with all news coming out of China, it seems that the news the baiji, or Yangtze River, dolphin was extinct is highly unreliable. Yes, these rumours of its death are greatly exaggerated.
…a local businessman in Tongling City in east China’s Anhui Province filmed “a big white animal” with his digital camera on August 19. The footage was later confirmed to be the Baiji by Prof. Wang Ding, a leading scientist in Baiji study at the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Still, as the YouTube commenter says, I’ll bet five bucks it’ll be on a restaurant platter in Beijing two weeks.

Does that mean that there is a possibility that “Disco” isn’t dead either?
Charlie, don’t frighten me like that. As long as we’re good little boys and girls Disco will remain dead.
Actually, except probably in certain isolated regions in Asia. As long as it can be contained, I’m okay with it.
