There are also some species of sturgeon whose number is already relatively small, and they have even become endangered animals or even extremely endangered animals. Through artificial breeding and cultivation, they can be better protected, so that they will not be extinct. For example, Chinese sturgeon, the number of wild Chinese sturgeon is small, and it has become a kind of protected animal in China.
