    LIPOTIDAE



    Photograph of a taxidermy mount of Baiji (Lipotes vexillifer) taken at National Zoological Museum of China, China by @Chlidonias ; given the fact that the species (and family) is nigh-certain to now be extinct it is highly unlikely any better photograph will be uploaded to the Zoochat gallery short of someone who worked with the last captive individuals joining the forum.
