Cormorant fishing is a traditional way of life on the Li River. This method of fishing has been in existence for hundreds of years. The cormorants are trained to dive into the river among the school of fish that live in the clear water. After catching a fish the birds return to the boat where the fisherman removes the fish from the bird. The bird is prevented from swallowing the fish by a ring that is placed around the neck of the bird. The bird is rewarded for its work by its owner. The birds usually fish much better at night than during the day.
