Savour: Illustration Friday

The picniking pangolin savoured the crunch of each and every ant that crossed his blanket that afternoon.
Hooray for pangolins! Native to Asia and Africa, these unique mammals look a little like the child of an artichoke and an armadillo. Last summer we visited the Angkor Center for Conservation of Biodiversity. They had a pangolin rescued from poachers and they're working on starting up a breeding program.
