Philippine Pangolin

Endemic in Palawan, Philippine Pangolin has the greatest number of scale rows across its back of all Asian pangolins. Interestingly, it is said to have an affinity with fig trees, as these trees provide tree hollows to hide in and attract their primary source of food - ants! For this episode, Palawan State University (PalSU) talks about the Philippine Pangolin and the threats to its population.

This episode is produced by the Institute of Environmental Governance in PalSU; Written and directed by: Rizaldy Bustamante, Kristel Dorado, Jade Remo, Andrei Sta. Teresa, Noell Soliva, Czarina Sulpico, Marie Chris Palma, Mark Joseph Buncag, and Imelda Lactuan.

Wildlife Philippines is an initiative under the Partnership for Biodiversity Conservation 3 of Tanggol Kalikasan and is being supported by the USAID and the US DOI-ITAP.
