Title: Pangolins: Rare insight into world's most trafficked mammal
Post by: Tusky on February 13, 2019, 10:27:23 AM
There's a really interesting video and article about pangolins on the beeb today:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-47200816 (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-47200816)

Not sure this article really belonged in "nature yays" given that it talks a lot about the trafficking that the animals suffer...
Anyway well worth a look - I'm sure this mustn't have passed by Jubs!!!

It didn't, but thanks for posting :) And yes, pangolin trafficking... the scale of it is just terrifying given that pangolins reproduce pretty slowly.
