'however, as time spent in captivity tends to bring about stress, depression and malnutrition, leading to early death.'

Just wondered, read an article about them in one of the papers.

Would be a cool pet to have! I'm not into keeping animals out of their natural habitat, so I won't have one.

World's most pointless thread?

Taptin Lorelli has one. There was a film about it.

Seems that's as close as we're going to get.

Is his a veg slicer (terribly dull) or a musical instrument (much more interesting)?

The instrument for sure, but he may be doubly blessed. I must check.

Never heard of them, look extremely cool. Probably shouldn't be kept as pets though.

^^ This! A friend at school was obsessed with them - I still have old schoolbooks with pangolins drawn all over it . Awesome things, would love to see a real one

Yeah, I know, it would be cool to have one though!

I'm a lover of all creatures, from tiny bugs to Elephants (my faves).

Did somebody say Elephants?

My god I remember that thread.

I have carved wooden ones, stuffed toy ones, carved white stone ones, knitted ones, blu tack ones, about 40 in total.

Fave is Jeffery, big Melissa and Doug cuddly one, stands on our bed all day looking out the window.

I'm a slightly mental soppy tt.

Sound like most blokes after a night on the piss

We considered getting a pangolin, also looked at binturongs, coatimundis and echidnas but in the end we just got some rescue cats from the local centre.
