Fisherman Shi Caizhong sells dead fish along a stream near the Honghu Lake in Honghu City, central China's Hubei Province, May 24, 2011. All fishes Mr. Shi fed in his fishery in Honghu Lake were dead because of drought in recent days. Plagued by a severe drought which is spreading throughout China's southern regions, Honghu Lake has dwindled by a third in water surface and dropped down to less than 40 centimeters in its deepest place.
