"Range contraction of the Yangtze finless porpoise inferred from classic Chinese poems", Zhang et al. 2025
https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(25)00266-0

"we examine an unusual source of information: classic Chinese poetry. From 724 ancient poems containing references to the Yangtze finless porpoise (Neophocaena asiaeorientalis asiaeorientalis), we infer that the range of this subspecies has contracted by at least 65% over the past 1400 years."
