S7E2: The Pangolin Reports - Myanmar, Nepal, Indonesia - a podcast by Sustainable Asia

How illegal pangolin trafficking is encouraging criminal activity in Asia

Pangolins have been around for over 80 million years. Yet China’s demand is pushing them to the edge of extinction…How are these pangolins being trafficked from their natural habitats in Africa and Asia into China? We interview journalists from Myanmar, Nepal, and Indonesia: they explain why this trafficking is damaging the social fabric of their countries.
