Chinese Pangolin is the biggest culprit of functional extinction and medicinal diet

Sihai network: in June 8th, China Biodiversity Conservation and green development foundation announced that Chinese Pangolin has been functionally extinct in Chinese mainland.

The report said that pangolin reproduction is slow, it is difficult to recover through natural reproduction, and it is very easy to be completely extinct due to human activities.

The main reason for the functional extinction of Chinese Pangolin comes from human factors. In addition to the interference and destruction of its habitat, the man-made hunting caused by the demand for medicinal and therapeutic scales of Chinese Pangolin is also another important reason for the sharp decline of the number of Chinese Pangolin.
