Chinese pangolin caught on cam at Assam national park

Assam's Raimona National Park (RNP) has recorded the first photographic evidence of a Chinese pangolin. This finding has been made by Assam conservationists and forest officials and confirmed after its publication in the "Journal of Threatened Taxa", an internationally recognised scientific, peer-reviewed open-access journal, reports Dhrubajyoti Malakar. A team led by Kachugaon forest division, Assam forest department, and conservationists from Aaranyak - a biodiversity conservation organisation - made this discovery. The photograph was captured on a dry stream that joins with Ranganadi river, covered with semi-deciduous forest dominated by Sal trees.
