My husband and I make a LOT of items for Conservation groups (legit groups) that fight against illegal poaching and capture. These groups raise money with pur products theough auctions. That being said, Pangolin are the most highly trafficked (illegally) animal in the world right now. Their captures/poachings are illegal, as well they should be.

Pangolin was banned in 2002. There are still some pre-ban hides around. If someone is willing to sell, it’s not gonna be cheap. I still have partial hides and smaller scraps from skins I bought pre-ban. If you have some it’s wise to have proof of its origins. They still show up from South America but I haven’t lost anything in South America and don’t need anything from there. Tough skin. Scaly, easy to work with. When I was in El Paso about 10 years ago, I worked on the border and I notice folks with nice boots…. Amazing how many new pangolin boots were walking around.
