Description My first painting of the year, the black-bellied pangolin from central Africa. Along with the other seven pangolin species these unique animals are among the most heavily trafficked and endangered mammals in the world, illegally hunted across throughout Africa and Asia to supply the traditional Asian medicine trade with scales used as an alleged cure for a variety of illnesses, similar to rhinoceros horn and many other animal parts.
