Wearing an armor of scales, and it is also called lingli. When encountering danger, its body rolls into a ball shape, and it is the original meaning of Pangolin in Malay language. Pangolin has no tooth at all, and its tongue is longer than its body. The main source of food is ants and termites. It protects trees, balances the ecology of forests, and avoids the risk of being overloaded with insects. It is an ecological indicator species for the hill ecology conservation. Human beings use the scales and meat of pangolin for the medical purpose of activating blood circulation to dissipate blood stasis as well as regulating menstruation and promoting lactation. Its skin can be used to produce handbags, belts, and wallets. Hunters catch and kill them to turn it into profits. Once, there were 60,000 sheets of pangolin skin exported from Taiwan. Pangolins nearly die out in Taiwan. The Wildlife Conservation Act in our country lists it as the tier 2 precious and rare protected wildlife to protect them. We have now finally corrected our concept and turn it from catching them to protecting them. If we encounter the precious pangolins in hill forests, please protect them and must not catch them.
