Pangolins are beautiful creatures. We are beautiful, everything around us is beautiful, so we have to support each other. Pangolin is a medium sized mammal which is wholly covered with tough scales made of keratin. Keratin is the same material as our fingernails. Pangolins need help because they are important parts of the Asian and African food webs, where they are found.

Three million pangolins are poached every year for the greedy wants of humans. They are one of the most trafficked animals in the world and are hunted for their meat and scales. Pangolin meat is highly considered a delicacy and is in high demand in China and Vietnam. Their scales are used for traditional medicines and folk remedies (medicinal value is not scientifically proven). All eight pangolin species are protected under national and international laws, but there is still an increasing international illegal pangolin trade. Besides, the baby Pangolins are killed to make wines. All species of Pangolins are in grave danger. Two of them are on verge of extinction. This has to be stopped. We have to stop this from happening.

You can support pangolins now, by spreading the words to neighbors, children and also others, - to stop eating Pangolin meat, buying the products made out of Pangolin scales like shoes, bags, stop taking the medicines which includes pangolin products, and report the crime against this beautiful creature, to the concerned authority. This will help them live, this will help them grow, and this will also help our food web, which will be badly affected if these creatures gets extinct.

Everyone involved counts. Remember your effort won’t go to waste. Help pangolins, help yourself.
