He recorded: "They can live on land and in water. They emerge from the bank during the day, opening their scales as if dead, luring ants into their shells. They then close up and enter the water. When they open their shells, the ants float out, gathering around to be eaten." Traditional Chinese medicine considers pangolin scales to have effects that promote blood circulation and clear meridians. This belief, which remains unproven by modern medicine and is akin to the superstition surrounding rhinoceros horn as medicine, has not stopped the hunting of pangolins in Asia. All eight species of pangolins worldwide face extinction threats, with the Chinese pangolin being elevated to "Critically Endangered." During illegal capture for ease of transport, pangolins are injected with various sedatives, stimulants, and even heavy metals, which can damage the liver and kidney functions of those who consume them. **IUCN Status: Critically Endangered (CR)** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49768445692_db088762d9_z.jpg * Do not use a steam iron. * Do not iron on nylon, silk, waterproof materials, sweaters, or down-filled clothing. * Do not allow children to operate unsupervised. **Product Specifications** Contents: Chinese Pangolin Ironing Embroidery, Animal Information Backing Card Ironing Embroidery Size: 7.5x4.3cm ★Note: Early animal embroidery pieces were made in China; all have since been switched to Taiwanese production.
