Meet the pangolin: This adorable creature plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy forest ecosystems, yet it’s the most trafficked mammal on this planet. They’re hunted at an alarming rate, with over 100,000 poached every year.

For our 22nd mission, we traveled deep into Vietnam’s jungle to help rescue, rehabilitate, and release pangolins back into their natural habitat.

With Trishala Naidu on the ground and Markus Gilles in the studio, we’re reporting on the struggles of pangolins and how we’re helping to save them.
