What in the World is a Pangolin?

It looks like a walking artichoke! And though it's a mammal, it has no teeth! See how the pangolin survives by using its long, sticky tongue to grab a meal.

What ever happened to simply narrating what the hell was going on in the video?
"We are here in the Okavango Delta, located in Botswana, Africa, observing the rare & endangered mammal known as the pangolin.
It has many hard plates upon its back and tail to defend itself from predators.
Here we see the pangolin using his long, powerful claws to dig into a termite mound.
He appears to have found a well-populated termite colony, and begins feeding."
There. Fixed.
