Together with our partner, Greenfingers Wildlife Conservation Initiative (GWCI), and with our supporters’ help, we built Nigeria’s first dedicated pangolin ICU and nursery. This is a groundbreaking step in protecting the species. The building and interior is now complete. The facility provides a safe, quiet and sterile environment for rescued pangolins – a species notoriously difficult to care for in captivity, as they are highly susceptible to stress and infections.
But…
Without vital diagnostic tools and veterinary equipment, the clinic is unable to meet all the medical needs of pangolins arriving with severe, life-threatening injuries and illnesses, or those in shock after their traumatic experiences. |
