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=

Happy World Pangolin Day! Check out this cutest bond of our pangolins captured by @firdialisnawati. Thank goodness all 8 species of pangolins, the world's most trafficked mammal, now have highest level of protection under CITES. Bali Zoo is also honored for "Pangolin", a short wildlife documentary filmed by Katie Schuler featuring our Sunda Pangolin, Tobi to be among the award winners at the Wild & Scenic Environmental Film Festival. Over the next two years, it will travel to 160 cities across the globe, reaching more than 38,000 people! Big thanks for helping us spread the word about the illegal pangolin trade: https://www.wildandscenicfilmfestival.org/film/pangolin/ ______________ #balizoo #bali #zoo #pangolin #endextinction #sundapangolin #trenggiling #animal #wildlife #savepangolin #gianyar #ubud #instagood #love #travel #holiday #vacation #natgeo #balibible #thebalibible #anteater #worldpangolinday #explorebali #wanderlust #balitrip #natgeowild #worldpangolinday #instazoo #loveconserveshare (at BALI ZOO)

#Repost from our friends at @wildlifefirst @download.ins --- Though the battle to save the pangolin is far from over, increasing protections and banning the use of their scales in traditional Chinese medicine is a massive turning point for all eight species. Both moves are crucial in the fight to end the pangolin trade, and they are a result of tireless efforts to educate the public and put pressure on government to take action.⁣ @wildlifefirst ⁣ 🎥: Emely S Plural Let's do all we can to save this beautiful peaceful species! @wildlifevoiceinc @jim_abernethy #Pangolins #savepangolin #conservation #saveplanetearth #lovenature https://www.instagram.com/p/CBaTMPoH3ER/?igshid=o398bl864eyy

#Repost @jamessuter with @get_repost ・・・ Celebrating World Pangolin Day, a mammal that was overlooked for a long time until the headline ‘most trafficked mammal on earth’ took over, and suddenly (some) of the world started paying attention. These animals are trafficked in numbers that are not really conceivable, the stories Maria Diekmann told us from @restnamibia were hard to get our head around. Definitely a species worth protecting and if this crazy killing does not stop, we could so easily wake up and these unique creatures will be extinct. Swipe to watch the film on @restnamibia by @alizejireh @blackbeanproductions for @riseofthematriarch @blueskysociety - @restnamibia are doing amazing work, as are many others. Hard work, not always rewarding. And funding is a huge issue. Maria had a baby pangolin while we were visiting - and he was waking more times at night to feed than Tom was (who was 7 months at the time and with us). So Maria was barely getting any sleep while running this facility. These women need our support and its what @riseofthematriarch is all about. And what World Pangolin Day is all about - to celebrate amazing animals we share the earth with but also to garner support for those fighting for them on the ground! #worldpangolinday #pangolin #conservation #savepangolin #wildlife @blackbeanproductions https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt8mIdIArR-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=sot7wvfu4z98
