Let's protect the endangered animal-Dugong dugon

Dugong dugon, some people called it as mermaid, is a marine herbivorous mammal. The body of the dugong is fusiform, about 3 meters long and weighing 300-500 kg. There are sparse short hairs all over the body. There is no obvious neck, the head is small, the upper lip resembles a horseshoe shape, the snout is protruding with bristles, and two approximately circular breathing holes are juxtaposed at the top of the head; there is no outer auricle, and the ear holes are located behind the eyes. There is no dorsal fin, and the flippers are oval. The tail fin is wide, flat and symmetrical on the left and right sides, and the trailing edge is crescent-shaped without notches. There are a pair of breasts below the flippers. The back is mainly dark gray, and the abdomen is slightly lighter. It mainly lives in shallow tropical seas and feeds mainly on aquatic plants such as two-drug algae and salt-loving grass. Its distribution is closely related to water temperature, ocean currents and the distribution of seaweed as the main food.

Dugongs are mainly distributed in Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan and the southern coast of Taiwan in China. Because it needs to surface regularly to breathe, it is often referred to as a “mermaid.†The dugong is one of the oldest marine animals in the world. It is a national first-class protected animal in China and one of the endangered species. Since four thousand years ago, humans have begun hunting dugongs, eating meat and pressing oil, bones can be carved, skins can be tanned, and dugongs have been extremely rare. In 1996, the Guangxi National Dugong Nature Reserve was established in the coastal waters between Yingluo and Dafengjiangkou in Beihai, Guangxi.


Making animal figures is our business however we also care deeply about nature and conservation. To that end we worked with the Guangxi Academy of Sciences & National Laboratory of Offshore Marine Environmental Science. Whilst it is fair to say we only play a very small part in this process, it is something we believe in and are happy to be involved and we can move further.
