[Explanation] Recently, a reporter from China News Agency learned from the Jiangsu Freshwater Fisheries Research Institute that in order to better disseminate freshwater aquatic knowledge, the institute creatively launched the "Su Yuyao" brand, hand-painted Chinese mitten crabs and Procambarus clarkii , Yangtze River saury and other watercolor paintings, and bound them into a book, to popularize and promote them to the general public and primary and middle school students.

  At that time, we selected 12 distinctive aquatic products, and we used them to make colored lead paintings and made (made) a set of postcards, which was the first set of works of our "Su Yuyao".

  [Explanation] In order to expand the cultural brand of "Su Yuyao", the Office of the Jiangsu Provincial Freshwater Fisheries Research Institute scientifically classified the common freshwater aquatic products, hand-painted vivid patterns, popularized freshwater aquatic knowledge to the public, and called on more people to protect them fish resources.
