A Proposal
Pangolin is an endangered wild animal. In recent years, pangolins have been hunted by humans for consumption as a food or traditional medicine, leading to this kind of mammal’s precarious conditions. The state has introduced relevant legal protection policies that explicitly prohibit the killing, consumption and illegal trade of pangolins. Although the living conditions of pangolins have improved to some extent, the number of pangolins is still falling sharply, and the activities of illegally smuggling pangolins are still rampant. In this regard, we appeal to the whole society:
1. Protect the habitat of pangolins. Do not capture and hunt pangolins, providing a good wilderness environment for pangolins.
2. Do not illegally sell and raise pangolins. The public should actively report violations and assist law enforcement agencies in cracking down on criminals and resolutely combat various acts that are harmful to endangered wildlife.
3. Do not purchase, consume pangolin and its products. Be a qualified civilized, law-abiding consumer. It is our responsibility to protect nature and protect endangered wildlife.
4. Resolutely resist illegal smuggling trade activities involving endangered wild animals including pangolins. The whole society must act together to protect biodiversity and protect the planet.
