      And China saying that Pangolin is behind the coronavirus

    • @yasminesimpson4235
      @yasminesimpson4235 3 роки тому

      Given the millions of Pangolins that they have trafficked, I am not surprised that China believes the Covid 19 is due to The Pangolin .
      They initially hunted the 4 types of Asian Pangolin to the point of near extinction , millions were killed and butchered in the notorious Wet Markets ,
      They are now hunting the African Pangolin , soon all 8 species of pangolin are the most trafficked wild animal, Pangolins are nature’s gardener ,
      they work in harmony to maintain a well balanced ecosystem. The Pangolin has NO Medicinal Properties, it’s scales are made of Keratin just like human nails and just like Rhino Horn yet these precious animals are being prescribed to humans in Chinese Hospitals as traditional Chinese medicines despite the fact that all the tests conducted at eminent research laboratories have all concluded the same results consistently yet both
      The 4 Asian Pangolin and the 4 African Pangolin and all types of Rhino are now critically endangered . China is simply choosing to ignore the Facts . 💔 🇨🇳🦏💔😭😭😭😭😭🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

    • @cryamistellimek9184

      Because of several reasons, being illegal they don’t have to pay taxes for more money. Another reason is people will pay large amounts of money for these animals for no reason other than superstition. Sure you could get honest work, but a Chinese man believing it will make him better in bed will pay you more for going out and ripping animals into pieces for their parts.

      K2FU: talk? What are you doing? You nothing but useless chatter and hate speech. You got bigger problems than cannot be solved here. Easy for a little man to hide behind a computer and throw out disgusting insults. Sure, go ahead and take out your baseless hate on someone you don't even know ANYTHING about. You have deep seated issues and should really try counseling to find peace. Nobody asked you what you accomplished over the past years, (and NOBODY cares about an ignorant dolt like yourself)I ONLY asked about what you did today since the slander rant saying Im "lazy" for commenting on an animal I googled while taking a break. . You took that as it meant interest but Im not. (b/c theres something wrong with your brain) You seek praise in meager tasks while you try to degrade others to feel good about yourself. Its OBVIOUSLY not working for you to choose THIS as your platform to brag or vent your ignorant sputtering of anger and hate speech toward others. Your karma will catch up.

      I reported them, though I don't know if his behavior is enough to warrant punishment. Their first response certainly wasn't warranted. I mean, you only *just* found out, of course you're looking for ideas on what to do.
      I think a good place to start is to spread the word on social media.
      And when possible support the organizations mentioned in the episode, thought, sadly, I don't remember what they're called! I did find this link, it's better than nothing: savepangolins.org/about-2/

      The woman who was in the PBS movie carries a soft spot in my heart after hearing her story. I hope they are successful. I will find a way to help in some way, and appreciate the lead. Awareness is the first step
