Spotted on our latest trip! This rare sighting reminds us how vibrant and alive the forests of Taiwan 🇹🇼 are! We must be steadfast in our support and protection of these fragile habitats! 💚💚💚
It’s not in the Terms and Conditions, but magic happens on @parkbus_taiwan trips.
Pangolins (#穿山甲) are the most trafficked animals on Earth and Taiwan is likely the last conservation stronghold for pangolins, which are listed as critically endangered on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s Red List.

【穿穿日,為牠穿上愛的鎧甲❤】
今天可是世界穿山甲日唷~
小編來為大家科普一下我們的里山好鄰居「鯪鯉」aka穿穿吧!
除了吻部、臉到喉部、四肢內側、尾末梢內側和可愛的小肚肚外,穿山甲從頭到尾披覆著鱗甲,每隻每年可以吃掉約七百萬隻螞蟻和白蟻,堪稱超強蟻剋星!🐜 全世界有八種穿山甲,四種在亞洲,四種在非洲,根據IUCN紅皮書,三種極危、三種瀕危、兩種易危,全都是保育類😭 其中臺灣的特有亞種「臺灣穿山甲」正是被列為「極危」的物種,因為棲地破壞以及有人迷信穿穿的鱗甲具通乳等神奇藥效,讓牠們瀕臨絕種😡😡😡
告訴你:假的!穿穿鱗甲的成分就是角質,跟人類指甲一摸摸一樣樣💅 再有人說穿山甲很補,叫他去吃指甲啦!!😤
#小編可贊助現剪送你不用錢
最近武漢肺炎也讓大家知道,野生動物是許多未知病毒的宿主,任意接觸和食用,可能會讓你送命啊!😱
要幫助穿山甲很簡單!✅支持友善環境農產品✅檢舉違法獸鋏✅檢舉不法交易✅郊區行車減速✅不棄養、不放養家犬✅不餵食遊蕩犬,守護野生動物安居的環境!一起愛護穿穿吧~💕
It's World Pangolin Day!
Pangolins are covered with scales from top to toe, except for their face, throat, belly, tail tip and inner part of four limbs. One pangolin consumes roughly seven million ants and termites per year. The animal is a super anteater! 🐜🐜🐜
There are eight species of pangolins around the world, four in Asia and the other four in Africa. On the red list of IUCN, three of the eight species are listed as critically endangered, with the other three endangered and two vulnerable. The main causes are poaching and deforestation. In China and Vietnam, many people still believe that pangolins’ scales are effective medicine and thus consume the animal to near extinction.
Of course the belief is nonsense. Pangolins’ scales are composed of keratin, just as human nails. If you find someone boasting about what magical effects of pangolin scales, tell them to nibble their own nails!
From the recent coronavirus outbreak, we can see that wildlife is the reservoir host of many unknown viruses. Eating wild animals might cost your life!
🌱How to help pangolins?
You can consume environmental friendly farm produce, report illegal traps, report poaching and trafficking, slow down when driving in rural areas, never abandon your pets, never let your dogs off leashes, never feed stray dogs, and thus keep Taiwan a safe home for pangolins and all the other wildlife.
Let's be the force 💪

" justice for wildlife "
ร่วมเป็นเสียงขอความยุติธรรม ไม่ให้การสังหารโหดเจ้าเสือดำ
สายพันธุ์ที่ใกล้สูญพันธุ์แห่งป่าทุ่งใหญ่นเรศวร นั้นเงียบหายไป
.
#เชิญเซฟภาพcoverเปลี่ยรใช้กันได้เลยครับ #ทวงความยุติธรรมให้เสือดำ
.
This is the face of wildlife crime in Thailand. This is a Criminal, and if justice follows course, this man should serve time for the crime !
.
This man is also one of the most wealthy persons in Thailand, being the President and CEO of a prominent infrastructure construction company.
.
Very little attention has come to this newsworthy event, but at least the man has been charged with wildlife offenses. Let's see what money and power can buy ? Will Law stand fast and protect the endangered Wild ? Or will corruption be fostered and influence pampered ?
.
KANCHANABURI — A construction company mogul and three other men were charged Tuesday with poaching a leopard, panther and other wildlife in a sanctuary.
.
Premchai Karnasuta, the 63-year-old president of Italian-Thai Development and three others were charged with six poaching-related crimes after they were caught 2am on Monday in the Thungyai Naresuan Wildlife Sanctuary with animal carcasses and hunting weapons.
.
“In that area, camping is prohibited, but we found four tourists so we searched them. We found lots of weapons and wild animal carcasses,” Thammarat Wangsopha, the sanctuary’s director said Tuesday.
.
Authorities found two rifles, a double-barrelled shotgun, various bullets, the body of a Kalij pheasant, a muntiacini deer carcass, a skinned and salted black leopard and a black panther skull in the camp.
.
The four men were sent to the local police station where they were charged with hunting animals in a wildlife sanctuary, which carries a maximum sentence of five years and a fine of 50,000 baht; illegally hunting protected species and possesing caracasses of protected species, punishable by four years in jail and a 40,000 baht fine.
.
They were also charged with weapons-related charges and poaching, punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a 200,000 baht fine.
.
The other three men arrested and charged with Premchai were Yong Doadkrua, 65, Natee Riamsaen, 43, and Thanee Thummat, 56.
.
The sanctuary director said the construction CEO claimed he was the guest of a wildlife official.
.
“Premchai is claiming that he’s the guest of Kanchana Nittaya, the director of the Wildlife Conservation Office,” Thammarat said. “He said he submitted documents asking for permission. But by due process those documents are supposed to be sent to the regional wildlife offices.”
.
Thammarat denied the claim.
.
“I insist that I have not seen any such document,” Thammarat said. “Although police are investigating, we in the National Parks Department will follow this case to the end.”
.
Kanchana, the director of the Wildlife Conservation Office of the Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation has denied giving permission for Premchai and his friends to hunt.
.
However, she said she received an unidentified phone call on Sunday asking for instructions to apply for a camping permit in Thungyai Naresuan Wildlife Sanctuary. She told him to contact the regional wildlife office.
.
“He’s not my guest,” Kanchana said. “Camping permission must be granted by the regional office.”
.
“While police have moved slowly on this case, showing the lack of transparency in the area, I’d like to congratulate Thungyai Naresuan Wildlife Sanctuary officials for arresting Premchai, being unafraid of his influence,” Sasin Chalermlarp, president of the environmental organization Seub Nakhasathien Foundation said Tuesday.
.
“It’s common knowledge that some people believe consuming panthers will lead to increased sexual virility,” Sasin said when asked why Premchai would target those particular animals. “As for the pheasant, that’s wild game hunting.”
.
Sasin believes the panther skin is for decoration.
.
“Of course it will become part of his his collection. If we checked his house, we would probably find the rest of his collection. I’d like authorities to investigate his house and his hunting history, since the panther seems to be skillfully shot and skinned,” Sasin said.
.
Sasin said he estimates that Premchai shot the panther while the other three men skinned it.
.
Another animal rights activist asked for people to apply pressure.
.
“Social media and the media must put pressure on this case, especially since money talks, so that the case can eventually go to court,” Edwin Wiek of Wildlife Friends Foundation said.
.
If the case goes to court, it would already be a “triumph,” Wiek said, because many illegal poaching cases don’t make it that far.
.
Referring to a couple sentenced in 2010 to five years for picking mushrooms in Dong Radaeng Forest, Wiek said expects a “similar or higher sentence” for this case.
.
Illegal poaching by the rich and powerful is common in Thailand, Wiek said.
.
“The police, rich people and government officials do it all the time,” Wiek said. “I think it’s because rich people want to show off to their friends that they have barami [social power], that they can afford to hunt because they have so much money.”
.
Premchai is CEO of Thailand’s largest construction company, Italian-Thai Development. The firm Suvarnabhumi Airport, the BTS Skytrain, MRT subway and other major projects. Italian-Thai Development also has building contracts in Vietnam, India and Taiwan and mines in Laos, Thailand and Africa.
.
Premchai was listed 35th richest in Thailand in 2011 by Forbes before falling off the list in later years.
