PANGOLIN!!!!!!!
Oh my gosh! I saw my first ever pangolin (Manis temminckii) in the wild last night with 5 volunteers. It was amazing! Naturally it didn't do much but we had a brilliant visual and got some awesome photos.
For anyone who is unsure what a pangolin (Manis temminckii) is, they are basically a scaly anteater. They are mammals but have scales made from compacted hair and roll up into aball for an armoured protection. Pangolins (Manis temminckii) eat ants and termites which they collect with their sticky mucus covered tongue!
