抄録

This paper describes historical changes in cormorant fishing, in which fishers use domesticated cormorants to fish in rivers and lakes, at Poyang Lake, Jiangxi Province, China. It considers adaptations within the context of social changes in China and analyzes local adaptations of cormorant fishers. This study clarifies that cormorant fishing has been a continuous activity even as fishing methods and rules have changed. On the basis of these results, the author described the local adaptations of cormorant fishers, which depended on changes in fishing methods and rules. The author also notes that cormorant fishers changed fishing methods and rules in ways that differed from those in which other types of fishers adapted.
