Author #179 : Jane Goodall shares a story about pangolins

 


Pangolina by Jane Goodall and pictures by Daishu Ma  Published by Minedition (a division of Astra Publishing House) in 2021.  This fictionalized story of a young Pangolin shares her growing up in the forest, learning to hunt and eat termites, getting captured, and what happens after her captor tries to sell her. Written by the world-renowned conservationist, Jane Goodall, this is a sweet entry about an unusual mammal.  Pangolins are endangered around the world because they are the most trafficked species.  Habitat destruction and use of pangolin scales and meat account for much of the decline in the species.   Find out more about how you can help at: https://www.savepangolins.org/news/2019/5/19/dr-jane-goodall-urges-us-to-take-action-for-pangolins
