How We Help Save Them

  • We provide salaries, equipment and support to save pangolins in the wild.
  • 7 pangolins were fitted with tracking collars in Borneo to better understand their behavior to better protect them in the wild.
  • 30 camera traps were deployed to study the Sunda pangolin.
  • Rescued 453 confiscated animals (like pangolins) from the illegal trade in Vietnam, and 224 of these animals have been successfully released back into the wild so far.
