The price of pangolin scales

The market price of pangolin scales is about 7.50 yuan per gram and about 3750 yuan per catty. Different grades and different market prices are high and low. Note that pangolins are forbidden to be hunted by the state. The purchase price of pangolin in Southeast Asia is only 70 to 100 yuan per kilogram, but after several transfers to the black market, pangolin meat reaches 600,800 yuan / kg, and the price of pangolin scales is as high as 4000 yuan / kilogram. Driven by huge economic interests, some lawbreakers attempt to smuggle these endangered animals and their products from travel inspection channels to make exorbitant profits.

The living habits of pangolin

1. Eating habits: pangolins mainly feed on termites, as well as ants and their larvae, bees, wasps and other insect larvae. The stomach of an adult pangolin can hold up to 500 grams of termites. According to the observation of scientists, in 250 mu of woodland, as long as there is an adult pangolin, termites will not cause harm to the forest, it can be seen that pangolin plays an important role in protecting forests, dams, maintaining ecological balance, human health and so on.

2. Reproduction: pangolin is a viviparous animal. The time of mating is mainly from April to May. During estrus, male and female cohabit, then separate after mating, and the delivery period is from December to January of the following year. The duration of estrus of male pangolin is about 5-6 months, and the estrus of male is long, and the estrus of male is non-cyclical. The female has 2-5 estrus cycles, the estrous cycle is 12-25 days, and the female is no longer in estrus after conception. Males look for females everywhere during estrus, cohabitation of male and female during estrus, separation after mating, one fetus a year, and three births in 2 years under artificial feeding conditions.

3. Build a hole

① Summer Cave: summer residence is called Xia Dong. It is built on a cool, ventilated hillside to avoid pouring into Rain Water. The tunnel is shorter, about 30 cm, and the structure is relatively simple.

② Winter Cave: winter dwelling is called Winter Cave. It is built in a place with low terrain and a vertical height of more than 4 meters from the ground. The structure of the cave is more complex. The tunnel is curved and shaped like a gourd. At intervals, there is an earth wall piled with earth, which can reach more than 10 meters in length. It also passes through the nests of two or three termites, becoming its winter "granary". At the end of the cave, there is a more spacious concave hole. Covered with soft weeds to keep warm, it is its overwintering "bedroom" and is also used as a "nursery".

The efficacy and function of pangolin

The taste is salty and slightly cold.

Meridian of liver and stomach.

[efficacy] dredging breast under menstruation, expelling wind and dehumidification, promoting blood circulation and detumescence, stopping bleeding and regulating menstruation, mainly treating carbuncle gangrene, sore swelling and toxin, wind-cold-dampness arthralgia, amenorrhea of blood stasis, syndrome accumulation, milk blockage and so on.

1, menstruation under milk: pangolin scales can play a role in promoting milk, for the lack of maternal milk secretion, late environmental factors caused by no milk production has a very good effect. You can usually put about ten grams when stewing pig's feet. It can also treat female breast swelling, lobular hyperplasia, and breast duct obstruction and swelling during lactation.

2, the effect of regulating menstruation: pangolin scales also have the effect of promoting blood circulation and regulating menstruation, which is used to treat women with reduced menstruation, amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, menstrual blackness and so on.

3. Dispelling wind and dehumidification: pangolin scales have a good therapeutic effect on lumbar and leg bone pain, rheumatism, flexion and extension difficulties, stroke paralysis, scabies, wind and leprosy caused by wind-cold-dampness pathogen blocking meridians, qi and blood stagnation.

4. Promoting blood circulation and reducing swelling: carbuncle swelling, hot pain, falling injury, joint swelling, rib pain, hemiplegia, all kinds of lymph node enlargement, tumor mass and all kinds of cancer can be treated with pangolin.

5. Hemostatic function: grind the processed pangolin, dry the bleeding area when used, and quickly spread the pangolin powder evenly on the bleeding site, which can play a rapid hemostatic effect and can also be used for nosebleed.

Culture techniques of pangolin

1. Site setting: the breeding ground of pangolin should choose the shady place near the mountain to build the field, dig out the topsoil first, then beat it into a mixed soil with quicklime, coarse sand and yellow mud, and then pour a smooth cement floor after drying it. Then use stones or bricks to build a 2-meter-high fence around the cement ground, surround it with cement to make its surface smooth, so as to avoid pangolin digging holes to escape. Then put the topsoil back to the site, pile it into a rockery, plant trees, grapes, flowers and plants on the mountain, adjust the microclimate in the field, and make it warm in winter and cool in summer. The rockery inside the wall should not be more than 1.5 meters high, and 1 meter away from the wall, a small pool will be built beside the rockery for pangolin to drink and swim. The size of the site depends on the amount of feed, generally raising 2 pairs for every 10 square meters.

2. Feed preparation: pangolin specializes in ants. It is very difficult for pangolins to catch termites artificially under artificial feeding conditions, because each pangolin needs to eat 80,120g termites per day, generally, the maximum amount of termites in a nest is no more than 1000 grams. Moreover, the ant nest is difficult to find, even if there is an ant nest, it takes a lot of labor to dig the nest, so the following measures must be taken.

① artificial culture of termites: the culture method is to dig holes in the ground, the branches and leaves of pine trees are rotten, and termite species are introduced for mass reproduction.

② artificial feed preparation: the artificial feed formula should be reasonable, the proportion of various ingredients should be appropriate, and the prepared feed should be palatable and like to eat. Pangolins, which have just been caught for seed use, begin to refuse to eat artificial feed, must be fed with termites or black ants, and then gradually change the feed ratio until they gradually get used to artificial feed, and those who refuse to eat for a long time can also be fed artificially.

3. Feeding management: the feeding room should be disinfected regularly, the soil of drinking water and dung tank should be changed frequently, the eating basin should be washed once a day without moldy feed, and the pangolin should be fed regularly and quantitatively once a day, 150-200 grams of artificial feed each time. After feeding, the pangolin was put into the activity ground for 2-3 hours. Pangolins are accustomed to wild cave life and have poor adaptability to changes in ground temperature. Once the temperature and humidity of the feeding room is not properly controlled, it is easy to catch cold and cause pneumonia and die. The room temperature should be controlled at 18-25 ℃, and the relative humidity should be controlled at 60%. 70%, so that the feeding room can basically be warm in winter and cool in summer, which is conducive to the growth and development of pangolins.

4. Cub management: the newborn pangolin weighs 90-130 grams, eyes closed, scale-free, light white, half-month-old eyes open. One month later, the weight gain was 200-500 grams, and the scales were gradually keratized, mostly dark brown. After 2 months, the pangolin can go out with the mother to look for food. 6-month-old offspring can weigh up to 1500-2000 grams and can live independently without their mothers. Young animals born in the first year can mature sexually and breed in the second year.

5. Disease prevention and control: pangolins change from wild to domesticated, and their food and environmental conditions change greatly, which sometimes cause temporary physiological maladjustment. Some disinfected river sand is accumulated in the field, that is, 1000 times liquid of 90% crystal trichlorfon is mixed in the river sand, and the pangolin sand bath can prevent the occurrence of diseases and make pangolin phosphorus tablets bright, clean and plump.

① lice disease: occurs on the body surface, the body surface is bathed with 10 ml of lice essence mixed with 3-4 kg of water.

② gastroenteropathy: if pangolins have diarrhea and eat less, they should be fed with dysentery, oxytetracycline and chloramphenicol for 4-6 days.

③ coccidiosis: pangolins are generally emaciated and anorexic. Sulfur powder (0.5kg of food is added to 2-3g) can be added to the diet for 3-4 days.

6. Product processing: after the pangolin is killed, the bones and flesh are removed and dried as a carapace (carapace). The carapace is placed in boiling water, and the carapace falls off and dried by itself. Or put the carapace into lime water, rotten the flesh and wash it with clean water and dry it. At the time of production, separate according to the size of the mountain nail tablets, first stir-fry the sand in the pan, pour in the sand tablets, and then stir with the sand until they are golden brown, take out, sift the sand, stir evenly in the vinegar basin while hot (200 ml vinegar for every 500 grams of nail tablets), take out and dry, and after processing, it is called "nail beads".
