PANGOLINS
The name "pangolin" comes from the Malay word pengguling, meaning "one who rolls up".
Unfortunately Pangolins are one of the world’s most trafficked mammal. Aside from humans pangolins' main predators include lions, tigers and leopards. Often, though, rolling up in a ball is enough to outwit the big cats, as a pangolin's keratin scales are too hard for even a lion to bite through.
However they are now critically endangered as the scaly mammal is hunted for its meat and scales, which are in high demand in some Asian countries. Pangolin meat is considered a delicacy while its scales are used in traditional medicine.
Donations can be made to WWF to adopt a Pangolin to support the protection of these species: bit.ly/2m8BSL0
