The body of the pangolin is covered with sharp scales that overlap. This protects it against the claws of leopards and hyenas. With their long claws, they burrow into ant and termite hills in order to dig out the animals and eat them with relish. The Schleich Giant Pangolin is made of child-safe materials which make it ideal for little hands. It is highly detailed to make it look much more realistic. It can be used for various school projects and exhibitions.
