Happy #WorldPangolinDay Wildlife Lovers! Sadly Pangolins have earned the title of the most trafficked mammal on earth. The harmless creatures that spend their time eating ants and are the only mammals with scales. The biggest threat to pangolin survival comes from the Asian continent. All eight species of pangolin are in danger of extinction due to the illegal trafficking of both live pangolins and the body parts of dead individuals - especially their scales, which are used in Asia as traditional medicine because of the false belief that the scales have medicinal properties. Many governmental groups and NGOs are working hard to combat the trafficking crisis, but they need all our help. Use the power of your network to share this incredible species with as many people as you can and bring attention to the threats they are facing. Follow & support any Pangolin organisation you come across. #Pangolin #pangolinconservation #savepangolin #stoppoaching #scales #vulnerable #wildography#wildlife #endangeredspecies #animalphotography #wildlifephotography https://www.instagram.com/p/Coz-2_jslSb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Some photos of my 1st sculpt of 2019. Unique and beautiful creatures..... a Pangolin 😊 I’ve had it in my mind to sculpt this piece for over 25 years, but somehow never did. I’m thinking about producing 2 small editions, 1 in bronze and 1 in hallmarked silver, both with some of the profits going towards pangolin conservation and protection. #savethepangolin #pangolin #pangolinconservation #sculpting #sculpture #pangolinsculpture #bronzesculpture #silversculpture #desktopsculpture #wildlifesculpture #nickbibby #sculptor https://www.instagram.com/p/BtSwx-ShKs9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1bxcjvt60ppzb
