Paper pangolin

There seems to be a real shortage of pangolin related crafts available online. So a few weeks ago (or maybe it was longer) I decided to make my own…  My desk has been covered with pangolin-shaped bits of card, felt scales and prototype pangolins.

In the run-up to World Pangolin Day on 20 February 2016, I’ll post the results. Hope you have fun making your own pangolins! Please do share pictures of what you make via twitter or facebook.

Pipisin the Pangolin’s trip to Sabah, Malaysia!

Pipisin the Pangolin has been helping Elisa, a Pangolin Conservation Officer based at Danau Girang Field Centre, teach children about pangolins and the threats they face. Pipisin and Elisa were at a two-day wildlife festival at the Rainforest Discovery Centre in Sandakan.

Thank you Elisa for taking Pipisin to the festival and for everything you do to help pangolins, and, thank you Joseph and The Bookmark, Inc., for organising the book donation to Danau Girang Field Station.
