The shy Indian pangolin, also referred to as the thick-tailed pangolin and scaly anteater (Manis crassicaudata), is a species of pangolin found in Sri Lanka and the wider Indian subcontinent, though uncommon anywhere in its global habitat range – mainly due to only a single offspring being born every mating season, as well as illegal poaching. Here are some fun facts you might not have known about Indian Pangolins in Sri Lanka:
Pangolins in Sri Lanka are mostly solitary and generally nocturnal – which makes them harder to find. They have been spotted in habitats surrounding Ahaspokuna, and even seen during Ahaspokuna Camp’s world-famous Bush-walks in Sri Lanka. So go ahead and take on the many walking trails forged by wild elephants at Ahaspokuna with your naturalist and bushman, and perhaps you might come face-to-scale with the shy Indian Pangolin of Sri Lanka!
