There was a show on PBS last night about how endangered Pangolins are, all because of Asian folklore and superstition. They are the same people driving the ivory trade and you don't even want to know what they do to the Sun Bear. They have no respect for other creatures in this world except the Panda Bear and I'm sure that's because of publicity and financial gains for China. :-(

I was going to say they are the MOST TRAFFICKED animal in the world according to that PBS show last night. I am not happy with Asians with all the destruction they cause in nature. Backwards people.
