The Chinese government has removed pangolin scales from its list of approved ingredients used in traditional medicine. Pangolins are scale-covered insectivores, the size of a house cat, and are considered the world’s most trafficked animal. There are eight species of pangolins, all found in Asia and Africa, 3 of these species are listed as critically endangered. Pangolin scales are made of keratin, which can also be found in rhino horn and human fingernails. Traditional Chinese medicine believes keratin from pangolin scales improves blood circulation and reduces inflammation. Chinese state-run media said the government took pangolin scales off the list because of “wild resources exhaustion”. The decision was made days after the Chinese pangolin was upgraded to a “first-level protected wild animal”. This is the highest possible protection status in China, with pandas and tigers also protected under it. These actions of China will have a real impact, these are steps that were critical, that needed to be taken if real conservation was going to happen for these animals, David Olson, Director of Conservation at WWF Hong Kong. Pangolin populations in China have dropped more than 90% since 1960.
