4. PANGOLINS
Since 2000, it is estimated that up to one million pangolins have been
taken from the wild for illegal trade globally. Poaching is severely
depleting populations in Asia. Research suggests pangolins
populations in China have been reduced by 94% and evidence suggests
pangolins have been locally extirpated in other areas.
Pangolin consumption and trade have made these creatures
one of the most endangered groups of mammals in the world,
considered a delicacy in China and Vietnam, and for pangolin
scales, which are used as an ingredient in traditional Asian
medicine.
All eight species of this animal, which is found over large
parts of Africa and Asia, are facing extinction, according to
Jonathan Baillie, a pangolin specialist at the International
Union for Conservation of Nature in London.
