Pangolins are endangered and threatened by illegal trading. This holiday season, help protect pangolins by supporting the rescues that rehabilitate them!
The pangolin, known for its beautiful, armor-like scales, is rapidly disappearing. They are the most trafficked mammal in the world due to being illegally poached for their meat and scales. Now, pangolins are critically endangered and only a few remain. Will you help us stop this?
Greater Good Charities has been working with Wildlife At-Risk to build pangolin enclosures and protect these animals from extinction. These enclosures act as rehabilitation centers for species rescued from the trafficking trade and provide the opportunity for a breeding program in hopes of helping recover/populate the dwindling wild pangolin populations. The breeding program has already proved successful. Last November, a baby pangolin, known as a pangopup, was born!
Currently, they have 19 pangolins in their care, four of them recently rescued from illegal trading in very poor condition. They'll spend several months in rehabilitation before they're integrated with the rest of the pangolins, eventually being released back into the wild. Together, we can help save animals like these pangolins from poaching and habitat loss.
This holiday, Choose Your Good. And together, we’ll make it greater. Donate Now!

Pangolins are one of the most endangered species in the world. Unfortunately when they are threatened, they roll into a ball hoping their scales will protect them. This position makes it easy for poachers to grab them by their tails and abduct them. Project Peril is building enclosures to keep pangolins safe and away from poachers. They are also working in Vietnam to educate the communities about how to protect them. It's a great cause.
