“What is a Pangolin?” This highly endangered species has been pushed to the brink by climate change, poaching and wildlife trafficking. It has now found itself caught up in a pandemic, suspected of being one of the host animals of the COVID-19 virus. Join media and wildlife experts Damien Mander, (IAPF – International Anti Poaching Foundation – www.iapf.org, Akashinga – Nature Protected by Women), Ulrico Grech-Cumbo (Habitat XR) & Wendy Panaino (Tswalu Kalahari Foundation) to learn how and why we should protect this beautiful creature, and all animals around the world in order to protect ourselves.
