Pangolin, also known as tringgiling, is a unique mammal found in several regions of Indonesia, particularly in Sumatra and Kalimantan. This animal has a distinctive feature, namely its body covered in hard scales made of keratin, the same protein found in human hair and nails. These scales serve as an effective protective shield against predators. Pangolins have a long, sticky tongue used to catch ants and insects, which are their primary food source. They are nocturnal animals, meaning they are more active at night and rest during the day. Pangolins are also known for their ability to curl up into a ball to protect themselves from predators. Unfortunately, pangolins are endangered in Indonesia due to poaching and habitat loss, making them one of the most threatened animals in the country. Conservation efforts for pangolins are crucial to protect this species from extinction and maintain the balance of the tropical forest ecosystem in Indonesia.
