Name: Pangolin

Swahili: Kakakuona

African pangolins, also known as African scaly anteaters, are unique mammals found in Africa. One interesting fact about African pangolins is their remarkable defense mechanism. When threatened, these creatures curl up into a tight ball, resembling a spiky globe. Their overlapping scales act as protective armor, making it challenging for predators to attack them. This behavior not only helps them evade danger but also showcases their fascinating adaptation to survive in the wild.
