    <h1>Pangolin</h1>

    <h2>Intro</h2>

    <p>Pangolins, sometimes known as scaly anteaters, are mammals of the order Pholidota (from Ancient Greek φολῐ́ς, "horny
        scale"). The one extant family, Manidae, has three genera: Manis, Phataginus and Smutsia. Manis comprises the four
        species found in Asia, while Phataginus and Smutsia include two species each, all found in Sub-Saharan Africa. These
        species range in size from 30 to 100 cm (12 to 39 in). A number of extinct pangolin species are also known.</p>

    <h2>Description</h2>

    <p>Pangolins have large, protective keratin scales covering their skin; they are the only known mammals with this
        feature. They live in hollow trees or burrows, depending on the species. Pangolins are nocturnal, and their diet
        consists of mainly ants and termites, which they capture using their long tongues. They tend to be solitary animals,
        meeting only to mate and produce a litter of one to three offspring, which they raise for about two years.</p>

    <h2>Poaching</h2>

    <p>Pangolins are threatened by poaching (for their meat and scales, which are used in Chinese traditional medicine) and
        heavy deforestation of their natural habitats, and are the most trafficked mammals in the world.As of January 2020,
        of the eight species of pangolin, three (Manis culionensis, M. pentadactyla and M. javanica) are listed as
        critically endangered, three (Phataginus tricuspis, Manis crassicaudata and Smutsia gigantea) are listed as
        endangered and two (Phataginus tetradactyla and Smutsia temminckii) are listed as vulnerable on the Red List of
        Threatened Species of the International Union for Conservation of Nature.</p>
