The scaly-skinned animal is now the most trafficked mammal on earth and is slowly but surely traded to extinction. The demand for pangolin scales, used mainly in China and Vietnam, for a variety of ailments has grown to the point that geographic boundaries are blurring. The meat is consumed as a delicacy and used as a status symbol. Pangolins have grabbed headlines in recent years after scientists announced that the species was most likely the intermediary host for the novel coronavirus COVID-19, and yet the trading continues.
