#PangolinFunFact Day 26: Despite the threats against them, public awareness of pangolins is very low. In a 2016 WWF survey in the UK, only 8% of participants were able to identify pangolins. Spread the word, support education initiatives, and help end pangolin trafficking!
#PangolinFunFact Day 25: Pangolins are the most illegally trafficked mammals in the world. Most demand comes from Asia, but Europe and the US are also major trade hubs. In fact, 78% of CITES-reported pangolin trade incidences in the US between 1994-2014 were for domestic use. 1/2
#PangolinFunFact Day 24: Trade of pangolin is fueled by demand for their scales for medical use, as well as for their meat which is considered a delicacy and popularly consumed as a show of wealth and status across much of East and SouthEast Asia. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 23: Pangolins are known hosts to numerous zoonotic viruses, including strains of Sendai virus (SARS) and Coronavirus very similar to those found in humans. (1/2) #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 22: Pangolins have a poor immune system and are highly susceptible to disease, parasites, pneumonia, and stress-induced illnesses. This makes them difficult to rehabilitate or raise in captivity. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 21: The long-tailed pangolin is the only diurnal species, an adaptation possibly developed to reduce competition with its co-occurring nocturnal sister species, the tree pangolin. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 20: Pangolins’ role in controlling insect pest populations (eg. termites) is undervalued. A 3kg pangolin can consume up to 300-400 g of termites per feeding, potentially saving millions in pest control per year in countries where they occur. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 19: The long-tailed pangolin, despite being the smallest of the pangolin species, is aptly named. An adult's tail can reach 60-70cm in length and contains 46-47 caudal vertebrae, a record-holder among mammals. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 18: Pangolins are actually quite capable swimmers. Even arboreal pangolins, such as the long-tailed pangolin, will descend to the ground for a drink and a swim in a nearby river. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 17: Pangolins’ scales can make up around 20% of their body weight. They are also tough and sharp - a combination of sword and shield - providing extra protection from predators. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 16: Ground-dwelling pangolin species typically walk upright on their hind legs, using the tail for balance. Like the giant anteater, they will curl their front paws and walk on their wrists rather than palms to protect the claws. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 15: A female pangolin gives live birth to 1-3 offspring which will ride on her tail until weaned. If threatened, the mother will wrap around her baby. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 14, #VDay edition: Pangolins are sexually dimorphic, with males typically being between 10-50% larger than females. They are largely solitary creatures, only coming together to mate. #WorldPangolinDay
(Paws up for strong independent pangoladies 🙌)
#PangolinFunFact Day 13: The largest extant species of pangolin is the giant pangolin, which can reach up to 1.8 meters and 33kg, while the smallest is the black-bellied pangolin at less than 100cm and 1.6kg. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 12: Most of the tree pangolins, including the white-bellied pangolin and long-tailed pangolin, have a prehensile tail which they use for balance and climbing trees. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 11. Arboreal pangolins such as the long-tailed pangolin and tree pangolin will den in tree hollows or forks, while ground-dwelling species including Indian pangolin and giant pangolin will dig or occupy abandoned underground burrows. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 10: Pangolins can be also be divided into tree-dwelling and ground-dwelling species, generally preferring one or the other, though most species are able to climb. Most Asian species are tree-dwelling, nesting in tree cavities. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 10: There are eight species of pangolin, evenly divided between Africa and Asia. All species are classified under the IUCN Red List and are listed under Appendix I of CITES, which prohibits international trade of parts and specimens. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 9: Baby pangolins, sometimes called “pangopups,” are born pink and soft, but their scales begin to harden after two days. They reach sexual maturity at about 2 years, but independence from the mother may occur as early as 3-4 months. #WorldPangolinDay
#PangolinFunFact Day 8: Pangolins have anal scent glands which they use to produce pheromones for attracting mates or a foul-smelling fluid to deter predators. #WorldPangolinDay
