Pangolins need scales

It’s estimated that a pangolin is snatched from the wild every 5 seconds. Taken to be sold as luxury meat and, their scales sold to be used in traditional medicines.

Pangolins need their scales more than humans do. Help raise awareness of their plight: print this pangolin, give him/her scales, colour in, and, share on your social media with #WorldPangolinDay

Pangolin species

Pipisin Pangolin is a Philippine pangolin, inspired by my visit to the Philippines. But did you know… there are eight different species of pangolin? Four in Africa and four in Asia. Pipisin has been on his travels, and finally, met all the species.
