More than 10 rare cowfish have been spotted at a section of the Yangtze River.
Local fisheries authorities say several fishermen in a township in Yichang City of central China's Hubei Province spotted the fish in the Yangtze River.
According to the fishermen, it is very rare to see so many cowfish at the same time and the last time they saw it was more than a decade ago.
Cowfish, listed under state second-level protection, live mainly in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the Dongting Lake and the Poyang Lake.
The total population of the species is only around 1,000.
