00:00In Palawan, one of the most dangerous animals is starting to become active.

00:07And the one and only animal that can be scratched.

00:11The Palawan Pangolin or Balintong.

00:18It smells every corner of the forest to find its favorite food.

00:26Cows and sheep.

00:31Even though the Balintong are rare, they are still the world's most trafficked animal.

00:39According to the National Parks in 2019,

00:43it is estimated that more than a million Pangolins are used for illegal trading.

00:50But aside from poaching, there are other dangers in their lives.

00:56Due to rising temperatures,

01:00the number of cows around dies or goes down.

01:05And in the search for food, there is a sudden danger.

01:13It's too hot here in Palawan.

01:15The incidence of grass fires is increasing.

01:20It smells like it's on fire.

01:23Wow, look at this.

01:25Look at its feet.

01:26Oh my gosh.

01:28It's on fire.

01:29It's skin is falling off.

01:31This Balintong is a victim of a grass fire.

01:36We are preparing our fluids because this Pangolin was burned in a grass fire.

01:45Because it's too hot here in Palawan, the incidence of grass fires is increasing.

01:51Let's see its injury.

01:54Wow, look at this.

01:56Look at its feet.

02:00Oh my gosh.

02:03It's on fire.

02:05We can see that there are first-degree burns on this Pangolin's feet.

02:11So we need to disinfect it.

02:17If there is no damage to its eyes, I'm worried.

02:29This is the thing that I've been waiting for to witness the release of Pangolins.

02:35Before we release them, we want them to be hydrated.

02:40We will soak them here so that they can absorb water.

02:59Thank you for watching Born to be Wild.
