Ritratto di un ranger dell'UWA (Uganda Wildlife Authority) con in mano una pelle intera di pangolino, confiscato a un bracconiere arrestato nel 2019. In quello stesso anno, in tutto il mondo, furono intercettate più di 128 tonnellate di scaglie di pangolino. Nel 2014, l'Unione internazionale per la conservazione della natura (IUCN) ha classificato il pangolino come minacciato di estinzione. Ma nonostante questo, questa graziosa creatura rimane in pericolo. Questo mammifero ha assistito a un rapido declino della propria popolazione negli ultimi decenni e potrebbe svanire ancor prima che molti ne abbiano mai sentito parlare. Le scaglie, fatte di cheratina (il materiale di capelli e unghie umani), non hanno hanno alcuna proprietà curativa scientificamente provata, ma sono comunque molto richieste per l'uso nella medicina tradizionale cinese, con un costo di 3.000 dollari al kg sul mercato nero Il pangolino è stato dichiarato a livello internazionale come l'animale più trafficato sulla terra nel 2017, elencato come in pericolo di estinzione nella Lista Rossa dell' IUNC (International Union for Conservation of Nature). I bracconieri uccidono fino a 2,5 milioni di pangolini africani ogni anno e si stima che il commercio illegale valga quasi 20 miliardi di dollari all'anno.

Obviously the 'like' more than the photo itself, however very impacting, is to be understood referring to the precise and dramatic denunciation. Thank you, Mauro, for highlighting this further hay in the name of human stupidity.

A valid image to document the problem. Unfortunately, man is always in favour of many disasters.
