The man who catches fish with osprey is Yang, the founder of Erhai Osprey Domestication Base in Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province.

Yang: What would you like to drink?

On hearing Yang's command, the osprey will dive into the water to catch fish.

Yang: Yes, there are fish below. Knock on the door, there are fish below. Go down at once. Go find the fish.

The scientific name of the osprey is cormorant, with feet like ducks and a mouth like eagles. Yang's domesticated osprey only needs to use special calls to guide the osprey to fish. After catching the fish, the osprey will take the initiative to dock and give the prey to Yang.

Yang: Look at these osprey. Show them. This is a small osprey. When it sees it, it will gradually get familiar with this action. When it comes up with a fish in its mouth, it will show off. When it falls, it will not be rewarded.

The osprey held high will attract the envy of other osprey, which can make the osprey fish harder.

Yang: Give them some to show them, but don't give them. Later, they will gradually (know) that they have to go fishing If they don't fish, they have nothing to eat.

The osprey fishing performance has now become a unique scenery of Erhai Lake in Dali. But before 2008, the osprey in Erhai Lake was almost extinct.

Fisherman Yang Yuegang: I am getting nervous every year. I can't afford it (Osprey), I can't afford it (Osprey).

Yang's friend Yang Xin: At that time, there were only dozens of osprey in Erhai Lake, and then they were not concentrated in one place, but scattered all over Erhai Lake.

Yang: When I came back in 2008, there were less than 60 osprey here, and now there are fewer and fewer. For example, a family has five or six.

But in this case, it took Yang six years to build an osprey domestication base in Erhai Lake, Dali. 20 14 received more than 300,000 tourists, and the ticket alone can sell more than 30 million yuan a year.

Tourist: I think it is amazing that they can understand people.

Tourist: It feels so exciting.

Reporter: Which stimulus?

Tourist: It is when they are fishing that they feel attached to this fish.

What is unique about Yang's domesticated osprey? How did he turn the endangered osprey fishing into a tourist attraction in Erhai Lake in Dali?

Yang was born in a fisherman's family by Erhai Lake. 1995, 16-year-old Yang Junior High School didn't finish reading, so he followed his uncle to build a dam in Xishuangbanna and other places.

Yang: When we were young, we knew the same thing. If we go fishing, there must be at least two of us. I was sixteen or seventeen at that time, and I was going out. If we go out, people will respect you.

Yang cherishes this opportunity to go out to work. He works very hard on the construction site.

Yang: When the river is relatively large, tie a rope. Everyone is pulling me, so I'll go down and come up out of breath. Others can't do it, and they don't want to do it.

Uncle Wang Yuequan: If people don't do it in difficult places, he will sign me up.

Yang: At that time, I was the youngest, that is, I was young and competitive, and others dared not. I did something I didn't want to do.

Yang Qin was quick and organized, and soon became a contractor. By 2008, Yang's accumulated deposits exceeded 65.438 billion yuan. But he suddenly gave up working outside and went back to raise fish eagles.

Friend Yang Liyuan: It turns out that we worked on those projects together, and he also made some money. I said, why are you doing this?

Friend Yang Xin: Our friends are all against him, generally against him, because there was no prospect at that time.

My friend said that there was no prospect for raising fish eagles, because there were only a few osprey in Erhai Lake at that time. No one thinks that Yang can do anything else.

Fisherman Yang Liyuan: This osprey is going extinct. Most people say yours is a fable. You don't say!

The osprey used to be the best partner of the Bai people living by the Erhai Lake. Many local fishermen have relied on osprey for generations to make a living.

Yang: Our ancestors, I don't know how many generations have relied on the Osprey. It is a member of our family.

How can the once brilliant Erhai osprey be endangered?

It turns out that from 65438 to 0995, the local government banned fishing for half a year every year in order to protect the ecological environment of Erhai Lake, so it was difficult for fishermen to feed the osprey during the fishing ban.

Fisherman Yang Yuegang: I didn't eat (fish), so I gave it (osprey). After eating it, it died, and there was nothing I could do.

Reporter: Will the osprey die after eating it?

Osprey: Well, death, it just eats fish.

Fisherman: When the osprey flies into the water, it is illegal. If you break the law, people will give you a fine, but you can't mention it.

An osprey eats 1 kg of fish a day. In 2008, the local government changed the fishing ban from six months to eight months, which made it more difficult for local fishermen to raise osprey.

Fisherman Du Shunfan: I feed at home every day, go to the village to buy 1 yuan a catty and raise 20 osprey. It has to eat 20 Jin a day from 20 yuan, doesn't it? It takes too much time.

Yang: By 2008, there were only six, four to five or six in a family, so it was no longer possible to fish. If we don't protect them, they may be gone in two years.

Fishing with osprey in Erhai Lake is a team work. If the number of osprey is less than 20, it will not be rounded up, which means that this method of osprey fishing in Erhai Lake will be extinct.

Yang: Look at this battle. They are all osprey, including here and behind. It's quite wide. Let's go around it.

Yang: I used to look for different fish, but as long as the fish ran away and moved, there were osprey everywhere when I came here. The fish must have been caught. If the fish is big, they will catch it together. Not for * * * help.

At that time, the number of' osprey' raised by fishermen in Erhai Lake was small, so it was impossible to catch fish by rounding up. Yang wants to collect all the osprey from each family and domesticate them together. The idea was rejected by fishermen.

Fisherman Du Shunfan: No, absolutely not, just nothing handed down from home. Sorry to sell it in my hand.

In order to persuade fishermen to take out the osprey, Yang came up with a trick.

Yang: Even if you keep it as a pet, he won't sell it to you, but when it comes to protection, everyone will build a base, that is, everyone will protect and domesticate it together, which will definitely like it.

Yang's idea of building an osprey training base has been recognized by other fishermen. At the end of 2008, Yang used all his savings 10 million yuan to contract the 16 mu of land in Shacun, Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture. More than 50 remaining osprey in Shacun village were all received here.

The Erhai osprey, which has a history of thousands of years, finally appeared on Erhai Lake. Twenty osprey in Erhai Lake can be rounded up. Under the carpet search of osprey, when an osprey finds a fish, the adjacent osprey will dive together and fight together. Even fish weighing more than 10 kg are hard to escape.
