• River Rehabilitation for Conservation of Fish Biodiversity in Monsoonal Asia (2005, background): “Establishment of captive breeding populations of Acipenser spp. and Chinese Paddlefish as a sort of insurance policy against the loss of these fishes in the wild has been advocated (Yue and Chen 1998, Wei et al. 2004).”
