Pangolin Rehabilitation and Release

Live pangolins are often seized from the illegal trade. WCP has supported DNPW with a rehabilitation centre to provide treatment and care for injured or sick pangolins before they can be released back into the wild. Post-release monitoring is conducted to better understand the survival rates and distribution of released animals.
