EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the early 20th century, showcases the Temminck's Pangolin (Manis temmincki) in the midst of its feeding frenzy. Known for their partiality to termite ants, these elusive and endangered mammals enthusiastically destroy the intricate nests of these insects before devouring their inhabitants. The Temminck's Pangolin, named after the Dutch zoologist Coenraad Jacob Temminck, is one of eight pangolin species found in Africa and Asia. With its unique protective keratin scales covering its body, this nocturnal creature is well-adapted to its role as an efficient termite hunter. The history of the Temminck's Pangolin dates back to ancient times, with evidence of their existence found in fossil records and cave paintings. However, their populations have been declining due to habitat loss, poaching, and the illegal pet trade. In this photograph, we are reminded of the importance of preserving the natural world and the unique creatures that inhabit it. The Temminck's Pangolin's feeding behavior is a testament to the intricate relationship between predator and prey. The destruction of termite nests may seem destructive to us, but it is a necessary part of the ecosystem. The Temminck's Pangolin plays a vital role in controlling termite populations, allowing other species to thrive. This photograph, taken in 1919, offers a glimpse into the past and serves as a reminder of the importance of conservation efforts to protect this fascinating creature and the delicate balance of the natural world.
