Africa: Why Anti-Trafficking Measures Alone Won't Save Africa's Pangolins: [The Conversation Africa] Nigeria accounts for the largest volume of detected pangolin scales illegally traded from Africa. Between 2010 and 2021, 190,000kg of scales - representing nearly 800,000 African pangolins - were seized in shipments linked to Nigeria, despite a ban on international trade. newsfeed.facilit8.network/TLKv #Pangolins #WildlifeConservation #EndWildlifeTrafficking #SavePangolins #Nigeria

There is no such creature as an 'Electric Pangolin'

Such things are announced via scientific papers, not one single website nobody has ever heard of.

By all means make such a creature though, pangolins need all the help they can get.

@palmoildetectives

Pangolin scales are made of keratin, the same material as human nails.

So you might as well (you better) eat your nails.

@primonatura
#pangolins Pangolins are one of the sweetest animals on our planet!!
A bit of good news for them.
What does it say for Man however?? To receive our 'benevolence' it still has to be "'useful". Not for its scales this time. Better than nothing so still good news.Thank you 4 info🙂
I pangolin sono dolcissimi! Una buona notizia. Però cosa dice dell'Uomo? Per nostra 'benevolenza' deve essere cmq utile. Se non per le scaglie per altro. Meglio di niente! Grazie x info

When it comes to restoring land and preventing wildfires, animals like pangolins, beavers, and elephants have a lot to offer. Can helping them help us?#ecosystems #endangeredanimals #pangolins #animals #fires #wildlife #climatechange #partnerstoryinternal #climatedeskinternal #section-Articles

Giant pangolins (Smutsia gigantea) are endangered because of deforestation and being hunted for bushmeat. But the solitary animals are also the world’s most-trafficked species because of a mistaken belief in China that their scales have medicinal qualities.

As insectivorous, burrowing mammals, pangolins play a key role in our ecosystem by controlling insect populations, recycling soil nutrients and sheltering other animals in their abandoned burrows.

A recent study provides the first evidence of Chinese pangolins’ role as ecosystem engineers, whose burrows help restore biodiversity in forest patches gutted by fires.

It is I, @readingchameleon, spreading the love (and pangolins) on world pangolin day! ​:neocat_aww:​

Am I a chameleon? and I a pangolin? Who knows, for I read (and write!) fanfiction and other coolness :D

"Pangolins are unique as they are the only mammal to be covered in scales. Even though they are scaly. Importantly, though, pangolins play an essential role in maintaining their ecosystem.
With World Pangolin Day being celebrated on February 15, it is befitting that new research presenting high quality genomic data for these Pangolin species puts a spotlight on the genetic vulnerabilities & extinction risks for Malayan and Chinese pangolin species"
