Mekong river dolphin faces added threat of Laos dam
Conservation experts and residents in Cambodia’s Kratie province say they are concerned for the wellbeing of the Mekong River dolphin, especially if a major hydropower project is built upstream.
Laos says it intends to go forward with the Don Sahong Dam project, despite opposition from Cambodia and Vietnam. Meanwhile, wildlife experts say the Mekong River dolphin faces the threat of extinction.
