The critically endangered Pangolin is a remarkable, special animal, one that sadly is the most illegally trafficked in the world.
These gentle creatures are poached and killed for their scales, which people falsely believe have medicinal qualities.
Now, a new Netflix documentary covers the extraordinary life of a baby pangolin named Kulu.
Created by the award-winning director of My Octopus Teacher, Pangolin: Kulu’s Journey debuts on Netflix on April 21.
Check out the movie trailer below.
A man finds new purpose when he helps rescue a baby pangolin, one of the most trafficked animals in the world, in a sting operation in South Africa.
He leaves the city and embarks on a heartfelt mission to rehabilitate and prepare the vulnerable animal for a life of freedom in the wild.
