The behaviours, ecologies and morphologies of pangolins make them challenging to survey monitor, non-targeted wildlife surveys have not produced robust status assessments, especially where population densities are low because overexploitation. To inform the development feasible monitoring techniques for pangolins, we conducted a systematic review all traceable efforts used monitor date: 87 articles were included in review. Pitfalls current approaches discussed recommendations made on...
Despite being heavily exploited, pangolins (Pholidota: Manidae) have been subject to limited research, resulting in a lack of reliable population estimates and standardised survey methods for the eight extant species. Camera trapping represents unique opportunity broad-scale collaborative species monitoring due its largely non-discriminatory nature, which creates considerable volumes data on relatively wide range This has potential shed light ecology rare, cryptic understudied taxa, with...
For Critically Endangered “species of extreme rarity,” there is an urgent need to clarify the potential survival remnant populations. Such populations can be difficult detect using standard field methods. Local ecological knowledge (LEK) represents important alternative source information, but anecdotal reports rare or possibly extinct species contain uncertainty and error. The Hainan gibbon ( Nomascus hainanus ), world's rarest primate species, confirmed only survive as a tiny population in...
Pangolins are threatened by overexploitation for local and international use. They subject to an commercial trade ban, also the focus of other interventions, including attempts at captive breeding. The impact that latter could have on conservation wild populations deserves consideration. We critically evaluate feasibility breeding (or farming) pangolins displace collection assess its potential pangolin using a recently published framework developed this purpose. Of 17 conditions posited need...
Abstract Background Early in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, Sunda pangolins ( Manis javanica ) involved illegal wildlife trade mainland China were identified as hosts of severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronaviruses (SARSr-CoVs). Although it is unconfirmed whether or other traded served intermediate for syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2), trafficking presents a clear risk transmission viruses with zoonotic and epizootic potential regardless. We have investigated origins...
