  • Since 2016, Small Mammals Conservation and Research Foundation (SMCRF) has been actively celebrating World Pangolin Day through different events and activities. This year, the organization celebrated the 9th World Pangolin Day on 15th February, 2020 in Chandragiri, a prominent habitat site of pangolins in Kathmandu. With the objective to maintain clean habitat for pangolins, a clean-up campaign was conducted in Laglage Paakha Community Forest, Ward No. 3 of Chandragiri Municipality. Around 150 participants from different organizations, universities, government agencies and local residents actively participated in the cleaning of the forest trail. The event also inaugurated a segregated waste bin and visitor’s informational board about pangolin, that was done by the Community Forest President and Ward Office Member. Furthermore, the yearly research scholarship provided by the organization was awarded this year to Ms. Jyoti Aryal (Goldengate 4th Semester) and Ms. Sujita Dhaka (Forest College, Pokhara) for their research in pangolin and otter respectively. We are thankful to Chandragiri Municipality, European Outdoor Conservation Association, @wwfnepal, IUCN Nepal Office, ZSL-Nepal, Community Forest Groups of Chandragiri and the participants who helped in successfully completing WPD 2020. #worldpangolinday #pangolin #scalinguppangolinconservation #savepangolins @pangolinsg
  • SMCRF is celebrating the 9th World Pangolin Day on 15th February, 2020 (Saturday, 08:30AM - 11:00AM) in Chandragiri. Biodiversity assessment in the lower belt of Chandragiri area has recorded Chinese Pangolin. However, inorganic plastic waste thrown by the increasing number of visitors has been degrading the quality of the natural habitat. Hence, the main purpose of this event is to celebrate the day together in raising awareness on the issue of plastic waste in wildlife habitat and conduct a clean-up campaign for the species. The event will also be highlighting conservation of pangolin along with distributing ‘Small Mammals Research Fellowship 2020’.
