Abstract

Pangolins have characteristics that protect them from predators, from their scaly skin to their ability to roll into a ball. But these armored mammals are endangered. Hunting, severe weather, and habitat loss are a few reasons pangolins are dying faster than they’re being born. Readers will learn why pangolins are at risk, what it means to be endangered, and how people can help. Each title includes activities and trivia questions to help readers connect with the content.
