Pangolins, often called “scaly anteaters,” are covered in tough, overlapping scales.
The prehistoric pangolin, which walks on its hind legs due to the length and curvature of its impressive claws
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.

Pangolin species vary in size from about 1.6kg (~3.5 lbs) to a maximum of about 33kg (~73 lbs).
In response to the pangolin's plight, numerous campaigns have been launched to raise awareness, including the SavePangolins organisation and an app, Roll with the Pangolins, which was endorsed by Prince William in his role as President of United for Wildlife.
They vary in color from light to yellowish brown through olive to dark brown
