Pangolins, often called scaly anteaters, are covered in tough, overlapping scales. These burrowing mammals eat ants and termites using an extraordinarily long, sticky tongue, and are able to quickly roll themselves up into a tight ball when threatened.
Siew Te Wong videoed this female Sunda Pangolin in the rainforest of Borneo in a very rare occation.

  • I cannot agree with you more Xavier. The 22,000 pangolins originated from this population in Sabah. Like every species on Earth, they deserve the right to live and should live for a long long time. Our own kind is just plain selfish!

  • Thanks all. Please help us promote this video and othet video in our channel to raise conservation awareness of this species and sun bears. Thank you for leaving your comments!

  • Thank you. I hope you can help us promote this video and let more people see this magnificient creature that we all need to know about.

    ~ Wong
