Pangolin on Zimbabwe's Savanna
The pangolin is shown walking across the rocky savanna environment of Zimbabwe beside weathered granite rocks. Large protective scales cover its body, extending along its back and tail as it moves through its native African habitat. Layered granite boulders characterize the terrain where this elusive mammal searches for food.
Fascinating Facts About Pangolins
Pangolins are the only mammals covered in true keratin scales, which act as tough armor against predators. When threatened on the open savanna, a pangolin rolls into a tight ball that carnivores cannot easily penetrate. Zimbabwe's granite kopjes provide crevice-rich habitats where these nocturnal insect-eaters can hide during daylight hours.
Genuine Colors of the Pangolin
- Body scales: dark yellow-brown to olive brown
- Underbelly skin: soft pale pinkish gray
- Claws: pale tan or ivory colored horn
- Granite boulders: speckled light gray and charcoal with orange lichen patches
- Ground soil: reddish brown savanna earth
