Indian pangolinとは 意味・読み方・使い方

The Indian Pangolin (Manis crassicaudata) or ”Scaly Ant-eater” is a pangolin that is found in the plains and hills of India, Sri Lanka and some parts of Pakistan. It is not common anywhere in its range. Like other pangolins, it has large, overlapping scales on the body which act like an armour. It can also curl itself into a ball as self defense against predators such as the tiger. Its colour of its scales varies and depends on the colour of the earth in its surroundings. It is an insectivore that feeds on ants and termites, digging them out of mounds and tree-logs using its long claws, which are as long as its forelimbs. It is nocturnal and rests in deep burrows during the day.
