How Many Are They?
3rd Mar 2021, by WWF Malaysia
Bearded pigs (Sus barbatus) are known as scavengers of the forest floors, looking for food and can be active day and night. They turn over soil to look for earthworms, and this helps aerate the soil. They are also important prey for large predators such as the Sunda clouded leopard (Neofelis diardi).
.
Let’s give bearded pigs a shout out this #WorldWildlifeDay. #DoOneThingToday to conserve forests and forest species.

23rd Feb 2021, by WWF Malaysia
“I remember coming home from school in my scruffy uniform and messy hair, rushing to see the notes my mom used to leave before she left for work. I found her neat and clean cursive handwriting admirable. I would throw myself down onto the sofa and read the notes out loud, excitedly. The notes would vary from recalling the incident from the night before or how she felt about me. Even though the reading time lasted for one or two minutes, I felt that it was precious because she let me know what...

Pangolin Is Actually A Mammal Covered In Scales. T..
20th Feb 2021, by WWF Malaysia
Pangolin is actually a mammal covered in scales. These scales are made from hard keratin which is the same material as human fingernails. When faced with adversity, pangolins make full use of their tough scaled armor by curling into a ball. Although this defense mechanism is great at deterring predators from attacking them, it also makes them easy targets for humans.
.
Living on a strict diet of bugs and grubs, pangolins are Mother Nature’s pest control. When foraging for food, they make full ...
