O0 c1 narrator pangolins are shy, secretive creatures. Quite unlike anything else on earth. Ei claws can dig through concrete. Their thin, sticky tongues are as long as their bodies. They can travel along on their hind legs. Al these animals haked the planet for ov 40 million years, and there are eight distinct species. Four are found in africa. And four in asia.

In the last 20 years, the demand for pangolin scales for use in traditional asian medicines has decimated their numbers worldwide. Today, a pangolin will be taken from the wild every five minutes.
