China lost its Yangtze River dolphin. Overfishing and human activity drove it to the brink of extinction and it hasn't been seen in decades.

They called it the"Goddess of the Yangtze" -- a creature so rare that it was believed to bring fortune and protection to local fishermen and all those lucky enough to spot it.

But overfishing and human activity drove it to the brink of extinction and it hasn't been seen in decades. "The baiji, or Yangtze River dolphin, was this unique and beautiful creature -- there was nothing quite like it," said Samuel Turvey, a British zoologist and conservationist who spent more than two decades in China trying to track the animal down."It was around for tens of millions of years and was in its own mammal family.
