    those things are just to cool
    there is another animal looks a lot like it but without the scales called a Tamandua
    they both eat primarily insects ( termites ) and there cages stink to high hell
    I do not envy the keepers assistant's who have to clean up after these guys

    B

    Pangolins and Tamandua's are actually really friendly
    at least in captivity they are

    built for ripping up Termite mounds
    Ive handled those animals before and they are actually pretty careful not to do any damage
    that and they don't actually have any teeth
    at least I dont think they do
    but they love to lick meal worms out of your hand
    and other than stinking to high hell really dont have any bad qualities as a pet
    pretty sure you can litter box train em as well

    Looking down the business end of these massive guns is awe inspiring and probably very frightening if they were purposely aimed at you!

    thing that always amazes me is that they can actually hit something with those things at what
    twenty or thirty miles out
    not sure what the effective range is but
    ouch
    hate to have some car sized projectile land on the old homestead eh
