The Indus River dolphin is a freshwater dolphin species found primarily in the Indus River system in Pakistan and parts of India and China. It is known for its distinctive pinkish color and long, slender body, which can reach lengths of up to 2.5 meters. These dolphins are adapted to living in murky waters and have poor eyesight, relying on echolocation to navigate and hunt for fish. This species is classified as endangered due to habitat loss, pollution, and entanglement in fishing nets. Conservation efforts are underway to protect the Indus River dolphin and its habitat, aiming to raise awareness and promote sustainable practices in the region.
